I have enabled quotas on our FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE
and set quota limits on /var  for user quotas to limt mail storage under 
/var/mail
this is the only directory that contains files owned by users on the /var 
partition
The problem is that a file (mailbox) is reported differently bu du and quotas
ls -l  /var/mail/diane   -rw-------  1 diane  user  17243625 Jun  6 13:55 diane
du -k /var/mail/diane   16864   diane
du -h /var/mail/diane     16M   diane

However quota -v shows somthing else alltogether
quota -v diane
Disk quotas for user diane (uid 1894):
Filesystem  blocks   quota   limit        grace   files   quota   limit   grace
  /var    	2512      20550  102600                 0       0       0

What is going on with this and is there a fix?

Here is the layout:
