We prove the equivalence between geometric and analytic definitions
of quasiconformality for a homeomorphism f : X → Y between arbitrary
locally finite separable metric measure spaces, assuming no metric hypotheses
on either space. When X and Y have locally Q-bounded geometry and Y is
contained in an Alexandrov space of curvature bounded above, the sharpness
of our results implies that, as in the classical case, the modular and pointwise
outer dilatations of f are related by KO(f) = esssupHO(x, f).
