We have users who, having deleted email, evidently do not recover the
quota allocated to those messages. We do not believe that we have

Well...I don't think so. With my configuration (same as you cyrus +
FreeBSD 11) when someone delete a mail the quota is recover.

enabled delayed deletion. All the user mailboxes previous had been

with delayed deletion. For example :

[root /usr/local/cyrus/sbin]# ./quota user.zog
Quota % Used Used Resource Root
20971520 13 2889569 STORAGE user.zog
137037 MESSAGE user.zog
0 X-ANNOTATION-STORAGE user.zog
299 X-NUM-FOLDERS user.zog
[root /usr/local/cyrus/sbin]# cd /bals/user/zog
[root /bals/user/zog]# du -s -h .
3.9G .
[root /bals/user/zog]# find . -type f|wc
179261 179264 2760840
[root /bals/user/zog]#

So you can see the quota show with cyrus command say I use 2889569 (~2.7
Go) and 137037 messages, but on the filesystem (ZFS) I use 3.9Go and 179000
files (event It's not precise because I didn't exclude cyrus*)

When you say ‘delete’ do you mean a client software that may actually be moving the messages to a Trash folder?
This could have the effect you mention

enabled delayed deletion. All the user mailboxes previous had been
sudo -u cyrus /usr/local/cyrus/sbin/reconstruct -f -r -G -V max user
We have also run reconstruct. None-the-less some users show that they
have exceeded their quota even when most of their email has been
deleted. Why?
