The current version of Courier, under its default settings, will accept one message to an overquota account, which will sit in the mailq, but all further messages to this address will get turned away with a 4xx, until such time that the message in the mail queue getsdelivered.That's not what I'm seeing. I have not seen a single quota rejection in my maillog. One of my over-quota users has six messages in the queue right now.
That's why wrote "under its default settings".
All I see in the log is repeated "maildir over quota" and "status: deferred" messages coming from courierlocal. Are there any permissions issues that could be involved? Where are the settings that control this behavior?
The BOFHSUPPRESSBACKSCATTER setting in the bofh configuraton file, and the ESMTP_BLOCKBACKSCATTER in the courierd configuration file.
