I understand and you should consider Charles' advice :-)

This is something your MDA should do. Neither the Dovecot LMTP server
nor the current Dovecot deliver can do so. But deliver is rather
small, so you could hack it in.

Or use Dovecot deliver in combination with Snarf and a MDA wrapper, e.g.:

The wrapper script first checks, if the recipient is over quota, in
that case use another maildrop programm, such as procmail, that
delivers the message to a spool area; otherwise call Dovecot deliver
with the usual arguments. Or if you call Dovecot deliver and it exits
with exit code 69 (Tempfailure), call that other MDA.

Then let Snarf pull the messages into the INBOX next time.
