Again, what damnfool software thought doing that was a good notion?
In a shared-use directory, even.

Sigh. The hack to work around it in Exim would probably be
to divide the byte count, and file counter (necessitating
change to floating-point), by the link count.


Alternatively, deliver *via* Dovecot and give up on Exim
knowing anything about quota limit.
