no - in case of quota full i can take a phone and call the RCPT, he can make free space due the phone call and say "try it again please" in case of disk full *this is* a permanent error likely not correctable by the user given that after delete a message a different one get a new and the disk is full again that sort of mistakes happens one per decade and hardly need special handling - if that happens your user quotas are wrongly configured because the idea behind them is to prevent "disk full"
