My guess is that those owned by uid:gid were created by Webmin or
Virtualmin, while those owned by the mail group were created by your
mail server when mail for the account first arrives. Both should work
fine though..
Are you seeing any problems caused by the different group ownerships?

When you look at the quotas, any users or groups that have been deleted are still there but they are now listed by their uid or gid and cannot be removed via the Quota module. It has to be done from the command line...

This isn't really a bug .. 
Unix disk quotas cannot actually be deleted - instead, they are just
ignored if the UID does not own any files, and will be over-written when
a new user is created with the same UID.

The Pro version of Virtualmin has this exact feature already :)
I will be backported to the GPL version some time in future though,
although I will need to cleanup and synchronize the code between the two
versions first..
