Dovecot should never generate a message to send to sender, this is
classified as backscatter.
Your MTA should get the quota answer from dovecot when the sender
connects, and tries to mail and fail then, it is the MTA (maillog file)
you need to look at to see why your MTA is not tempfailing the
connection.
