In the retry section of the configuration, put
*@your.dom.ain quota
That is, provide no retry timings for over quota errors. They will then
bounce immediately.
This isn't the only feature. What I use on this system is
*@cus.cam.ac.uk quota_7d
*@cus.cam.ac.uk quota F,2h,15m; F,3d,1h
which bounces immediately if the user's mailbox hasn't been read for 7
days, but otherwise tries for up to 3 days after the first quota
failure.
