Sam, I would appreciate it if you could elaborate just a little bit. I think that the file is "safe enough" if it is written in a careful way.

Either one will work. Since my user data is stored in LDAP and the all the mailboxes are under the same user, I don't think deliverquota is the right choice. I could probably get maildrop to work, but I think I'm going to extend the Postfix Maildir++ patch to properly write maildirsize files. I'm glad to have a good example in the courier source.
