No. The value is stored within LDAP but when changing it kolabd should  
pick up that change immediately and set the value for cyrus. This  
apparently does not work in your case. Do you see any errors in your  
syslog when changing the quota? You might try to increase logging for  
kolabd in /kolab/etc/kolab/kolab.globalby setting "log_level: 4".

Cheers,

Gunnar
