Sorry, but such using of quota system is (logically) strange for me.
 
Minimum user quota is (2,5 - 3)*max-mail-size... The better variant is 
10*max-mail-size with user alert at 89,9% - 
to store 1 max-mail-size message into user mailbox *after* alert.
  
If per-domain user quotas is so different (say, 5 MB in 'domain1' and 500 MB in 
'domain2'),
max-mail-size must be 2 MB (in one common MTA) or 2 different MTA for domain1 
and domain2 required, 
with max-mail-size 2 MB and max-mail-size 100 MB.
 
It`s only my opinion and my practice, and may be wrong for You...
 
Really, You use *quota system* as a variant of *user preferences check system*, 
with different logic. 
>>"Currently, these are no hard limits" 
 
P.S. Quota change 'on-the-fly' for mailbox on message receive isn`t a good idea.
