I can see how to change the format of the bounce message using a template file,
but I don't think there is a way of changing the actual error message text
output by the transport when it can't deliver to a mailbox, i.e. I don't think
this mechanism can be used to remove the 'save to /path/to/maildir' line in the
error quoted above.
The "mailbox is full" is coming from appendfile.c - any idea where the "save
to..." message text is coming from? As a last resort I could change the source
and recompile. A grep -R in the source tree does not find "save to".
Thanks, Steve.
