Every one have such users... :)

Thus I need a feature in dovecot that will tell them via email: Level1: "You ALMOST exceeded your quota, you're at 90% now" Level2: "You're very close to exceededin your quota, you're at 95% now" Level3: "Would you please clean up now? You're at 99% now"
Personaly I do that using lmtp (http://pll.sf.net/) that does this kind of warning.
Since lmtpd is also a lmtp client, it can reply with a temp fail (eg 450) to postfix for several days.... Avoiding bounces...
