Obviously a fileinto needs to touch the quota code, so the hash problem 
is a possibility.  But I would suspect that if this were the case that 
it wouldn't be limited to just fileinto -- *any* message delivery would 
cause a problem.

My guess would be that Rob will cut a 2.2.5 release once these issues 
are fixed.
