Then a bounce is created stating the mail was rejected:
Your message to test@example.com was automatically rejected: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full).
Question: is it possible (without changing code) to alter this to where deliver would instead tempfail or something. Somehow it seems wrong to me to tell the MTA that everything is good, and then silently discard messages - regardless of the fact dovecot creates a bounce. This is not necessarily ideal either, but I _am_ wondering if this is configurable or not.
a) deliver -e
b) quota_full_tempfail=yes
c) a+b
Are there any plans to allow MTA check recipient over quota status?
Sendmail support simple "socket map" protocol that can be used for such queries.
It should allow to reject (not all) messages a) in replies to "RCPT TO:" for messages with right message size passed in "MAIL FROM:" b) in replies to "the final dot" for single recipient messages.
P.S. Cyrus IMAP supports "socket map" :-)
