I believe the quotas file is indexed by UID.  So even if a user is purged
from passwd, u_universe, group, etc. etc. he'll have a non-zero entry in
quotas unless you do something like this before removing him from passwd:
	edquota -p root loginid
which copies the root's quota entries to the about-to-be-deleted user's
entry.  I assume root has no quotas established!

You may want to also check for mailboxes, at jobs, secretmail, etc.
belonging to the users you delete.
