Easy (i think ;) ):
If the user is over quota, check for ~vpopmail/domain/user/.overquota file.
If it doesn't exist, create it and the send the message to the owner. If it already
exist, just bounce the message back (normal behavior).
If the user isn't over quota anymore and the .overquota file exists, delete it.
