Yeah, different things about different versions. Anand is using
courier-imap 3.0.3 - I'm using debian woody's 1.4.3. Of course, my version
is somewhat outdated, but it is Debians latest stable release.
So, from my point of view exim should have an option like
"create_maildir_size_file_if_qouta_is_zero" (a shorter one would be better
:)) which should be set to true, by default.
