It would appear that this problem was related to the fact that the
specific user in question had reached their disk quota.

I'm assuming it's actually the MDA sendmail is configured to use and not
so much sendmail's problem to deal with quotas?

In this case, how can I configure the MDA to bounce messages with a fatal
error if the specific user's disk quota has been exceeded?
