I was playing around with a module to show users their disk usage, under
Squirrelmail, and just got nothing!

After some digging around, I discovered if I hard coded the $username to
'nobody' it would display, anything else got a log entry...
quota: joeuser (uid 4186): permission denied

So after some playing around I discovered, you can't quota another users!

I thought this very funny, since it's obvious, from the README, that the
module was developed under Linux and it would let you do perform a quota.

I guess I can see it both ways, and but once again, NetBSD is the secure
system.

I guess no disk usage stats for the users.... :-)
