this is given by the address validation routines (for example see
lib-smtp/smtp-address.c as a starting point).

Maybe it would be easier to approach it by looking at the email address
that gave the error.

Is the email address compliant to smtp standards? Does it contain utf8
characters? Does the email address correspond to a mailbox of the same
name with a quota to be checked?
