On our Postfix gateway we're using a policy query to our backend
dovecot server to check if the mail would fit into the mailbox.

Recently I noticed that the hu-berlin.de Mailserver keeps retrying in
spite of a 522 error:

May  1 05:32:36 mail postfix/smtpd[5185]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from 
ir2.cms.hu-berlin.de[141.20.1.148]: 552 5.2.2
<marietta.xx...@charite.de>: Recipient address rejected: Quota exceeded 
(mailbox for user is full);
from=<xxxxx...@cms.hu-berlin.de> to=<marietta.xx...@charite.de> proto=ESMTP 
helo=<ir2.cms.hu-berlin.de>

May  1 06:32:38 mail postfix/smtpd[17803]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from 
ir2.cms.hu-berlin.de[141.20.1.148]: 552 5.2.2

(mailbox for user is full);
from=<xxxxx...@cms.hu-berlin.de> to=<marietta.xx...@charite.de> proto=ESMTP 
helo=<ir2.cms.hu-berlin.de>

Their postmaster checked the logs and found this:

"4.1.0 - Unknown address error" -- anybody seen that before?

Maybe a multiline-reply-problem?

I just tried a little something:

220 mail.charite.de ESMTP
EHLO foo.bar
250-mail.charite.de
250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 36700160
250-ETRN
250-STARTTLS
250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
250-8BITMIME
250 DSN
MAIL FROM:<t...@toastbrot.de.invalid>
250 2.1.0 Ok
RCPT TO:<anne.xx...@charite.de>
552-5.2.2 <anne.xxx...@charite.de>: Recipient address rejected: Quota exceeded 
(mailbox for user is full)
552 5.2.2 Contact your postmaster/admin for technical assistance. Or send a fax 
to: +49 (0)30 450 7570600 In any case: Please provide the following information 
in your problem report: This error message, time (May 03 10:14:52), client 
(127.0.0.1) and server (mail.charite.de).

221 2.0.0 Bye
Connection closed by foreign host.

That looks fairly OK.
