I also run Dovecot on a box with filesystem quotas, but just like Alan Premselaar, I also use Maildir. When people have hit their quota, there's been no evidence of lost mail, as Postfix simply refuses the message.

Of course, if you're going to stick with mbox, well, hope you enjoy the headaches :)
