Because the requirement is "Show Mailbox Usage on everypage"... then i was using IMAP::Admin but i want to do that faster... then i wrote a simple C code to read user quota without IMAP access.
That's all... but mail users don't have read access to /var/imap/quota.
Read it once, and then cache the result in the session information (or even in a cookie) along with a 'freshness' -- and when the timeout has expired, re-check it (say 1 minute, or five). Same thing with the LDAP auth. Re-authing every single page load is not necessary.
