Hmm, for the "plug-and-play" and "auto-repair" notion of Dovecot I'd say 
"auto-increase". The admin in me would say: "I must be able to limit it 
and know about the problem".

How about: an new setting ;-) auto-increase = yes | no | yes-and-warn, or 
something; "no"==warn. (I know you hate new settings.)
"yes-and-warn" would be default.

Bye,
