I think I did the RFE on FC-3 which was long before FC-4 and RHEL-4 came out and specifically wanted autosieve and some of the others and I know they weren't included in RHEL-4 version. I don't use Fedora for servers (CentOS or RHEL) so I wouldn't know where they are on the FC-4 cyrus- imapd but my guess is that they didn't change. So I have given up on RHEL cyrus-imapd packages and just use Simon's and the autocreate stuff is great - excepting of course, what Aleksandar's (note not Alexander Dalloz) admonition that when I had an issue with ldap lookups of aliases, it created a new mailbox when it should have aliased to a real account...it is fragile and you have to watch out. The autosieve and the autosubscribe features in Simon's packages are worth straying from RHEL/Fedora packages. As for OP - I don't recall if autocreatequota is part of Fedora's packages, which is why I recommended checking the readme. The nasty thing about directives in imapd.conf is that they seem to be silently ignored if not applicable so there's no log created if the feature is requested in imapd.conf but not part of package.
