Hello,

I think you want to have a wishlist item where you can feed external
quota information from a helper script/program into exim.
You might be able to hack something up with quota_size_regex and
manipulating the filenames to match the FS respective quota they are
consuming, but that is uglier than I want to imagine things. :)

Exim quotas, a file system quota incident will just look like a failure
to write the file out and bounce accordingly.

The retry rules are working on the queue and the hints DBs there, the
mailbox size is tested each time a delivery opportunity according to
the retry rules comes up.
(things are bit more complex with maildir_use_size_file, but for all
purposes the same principles apply)
