Well, I don't even run quotas.  But I do keep deleted messages around
for 12 weeks, and even if I didn't, I do delete accounts occasionally.
Deleting one account would go over the limit, and though I suck the
messages out to mbox format for the final archiving, an instant nuke of
older mailboxes would prevent an "easy" restore.

As long as I can just set it to 'unlimited', I don't care.  Disk is
cheap and I don't have enough users to worry about it.  But I've had
people delete all 100+ of their mailboxes before, and come screaming.
