I wonder if this is still true for 2.2.10. I set my quota to 3 GBs and it 
seems to work OK:

cyrus.rrz.uni-koeln.de> sq user/a0620 3000000
quota:3000000
cyrus.rrz.uni-koeln.de> lq user/a0620
 STORAGE 297144/3000000 (9.9048%)
[cyrus at lvr13 imap]$ quota user/a0620
   Quota  % Used    Used Root
3000000       9  297163 user/a0620

Am I missing something?

Thanks, Sebastian Hagedorn
