It appears that this can in fact happen. The fix seems like it would
need to be one additional check along the lines of this pseudo-code:

if ( quota_is_not_inclusive AND
     current_size < quota_warning_size AND
     current_size + incoming_msg_size > quota )


then do the warning message

Thinking about it...
