As expected, the erroneous "Syntax error:" message is generated by
the MX host of the original sender's domain. That domain refuses
bounce messages. Bounce messages MUST be sent with an empty sender
address to avoid mail loops. There is no other way to send bounces.

The sender's domain has decided they don't want your bounces.

The best thing to do is to configure your inbond MX host to reject
mail for users who are over quota, by periodically updating a suitable
table that lists overquote addresses.
main.cf:
indexed = ${default_database_type}:${config_directory}
transport_maps = ${indexed}transport
transport:
overquota@your-domain.example error:5.2.2 Mailbox full
or
main.cf:
indexed = ${default_database_type}:${config_directory}
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
permit_mynetworks,
reject_unauth_destination,
check_recipient_access ${indexed}rcpt-access
rcpt-access:
overquota@your-domain.example 552 5.2.2 Mailbox full
That way, you won't be sending nearly as much backscatter. Also
give users larger disk quotas. Running out of space should be
rare.
