So one possible solution for the problem would be to create separate quotas for the
sub-folders, instead of dealing with one massive quota root.
Would this be correct?

Cyrus IMAP uses a 32bit int to store quota in bytes internally, this causes problems with large quotas. While the bug says 2GB, from what I saw in the code a while back it's an unsigned long which should max out at 4GB.
Can one of the developers clarify 2/4GB as the maximum?

Hi all!
I have this user's box which is NOT over quota but Cyrus insists on saying that it is to sendmail. Also I am not able to drag messages into it.
I have ran 'reconstruct' on the the folder with '-r -f' and 'cyrquota -f' also. I have increased/decreased the quota...
The problem does not go away.
Could someone please provide some insight on this issue?
How do you know for a fact that the user is not over quota?
Well... the a 'du' on the filesystem shows the usage around 2Gb. The quota root was set to 5,000,000. Plus 'cyrquota' would report around 40% usage which agrees with the number I just gave you.
Keep in mind that a quotaroot includes ALL submailboxes.
And that is the reason why I check 'du' on filesystem folder.
Are there \Deleted messages which have not been expunged?
Not quite sure. Wouldn't these count?
Is the MUA using a Trash folder?
In the user's inbox? Yes, but that one is empty. Wouldn't that also add up to the quota root?
Two additional details:
1) it's cyrus 2.0.17
2) I attempted to set the quota to 50,000,000 and the problem went away.
With that
quota value the usage is down to 4%.
