Do you know about the "maildirfolder" convention, which is part of
"maildir++"? Here is a quote from the Exim manual:

<quote>
If Exim is required to check a quota setting before a maildir delivery, and
quota_directory is not set, it looks for a file called maildirfolder in the    
maildir directory (alongside new, cur, tmp). If this exists, Exim assumes the
directory is a maildir++ folder directory, which is one level down from the
user's top level mailbox directory. This causes it to start at the parent
directory instead of the current directory when calculating the amount of space
used.

I think maildirfolder does what you want, if I understand you right.
