If you don't have them already, set limits on mailboxes to a point where the store won't fill up.
If you already have them, sounds like they need to be lowered. Start with those in a position to help you get Enterprise.

This definitely falls into the "No crap" category. If this were my box from the beginning, I would have used enterprise edition. I inherited this box and will be stuck with it until the end of the year.

The same thing that would have prevented the problem in the first place: install Enterprise Edition.
