Hi,
         You want to make sure /var/mail is mounted with quotas 
enabled as well.
The line in /etc/fstab should read

/dev/ad0s1g             /var            ufs 
rw,userquota,groupquota              2       2

Make the change and then reboot and you will have quotas enforced on 
/var/mail as well.
