I have seen this suggestion elsewhere and would be perfect. The customer only needs a few extra kilobytes when their quota is full, so the hard quota could be just a bit bigger with a long/unlimited grace. The hard part is to get procmail or whatever local delivery agent to stop at the SOFT quota. I could probably quite some funky procmail rules, but that will add an unwanted amount of load to an already busy system. Anyone know if their are some built in sendmail/procmail checking that can aide here?

You'd have to lace your mail system into it so it could tell them they are over quota and bounce mail but not actually have a hard limit.
