hello,

 Buz, thanks for suggestion.

  Actually, i have given an interface of procmail filtering to our users on
webmail. So i'll have to change a lot, if i switch to maildrop.
  As far as deliverquota is concerned, I have some questions about it.

-  will deliverquota work with ldap's mailQuota attribute(i think not).
-  deliverquota applies quota on the directory we are delivering mail to.??
or to the whole of Maildir. Means that if i have multiple sub-folders under
my Maildir, and i've applied filtering to each of them, then what happens
with these two statements:
| deliverquota ./Maildir/  5000000S,1000C
| deliverquota ./Maildir/.Operations/ 5000000S,1000C

Will quota be applied individually to each folder , or once for whole
maildir.??
- To write these long statements for each filter, instead of just folder
name, doesn't seem to be very healthy.

- README.maildirquota says that message size is appended to each message,
but it is not happening for me when i use deliverquota. It was being done
without 'deliverquota' and without procmail, when i was just delivering
to ./Maildir/ . file 'maildirsize' is also not being updated.

I am using qmail-ldap's quota for thousands of users. and it was working
fine. So i'm not happy to change it.

 Anyone with any solution to this problem. I will be very thankful

Regards,
