syslog/rsyslog filters are the best method, in my opinion. This would 
allow you to filter to another file or discard things you aren't 
interested in all together.

I personally like quota messages in another logfile. Then I can tail the 
file with a script and issue changes so that the MTA servers reject 
emails to that user instead of trying to deliver, then periodically 
check quotas for users we currently block to determine when it is okay 
to accept emails again. It really lowers the bounces on the MTA servers.
