I'll second that - if we had the ability to expand a string (run an external
program, etc...) to set the quota in Exim, it would virtually eliminate the
need for any type of specific built in quota system support like maildirs or
anything since you could write a wrapper program which would do that all for
Exim and just spit back a number - at least just thinking about it right now
that's what I'm thinking could be done :)
