You're not looking far enough back in the logs. This is a retry,
the message did not just materialize on your system, it came in
from somewhere ~9248 seconds prior to 6:32:03AM on Oct 15th.

That's because the LMTP server responds with a tempfail 452 code, rather
than a hardfail 552 code. Configure it to definitively reject over-quota
mail.
And as mentioned by another poster, do try to avoid accepting mail
you're going to bounce. If you have a quota system, propagate
over-quota status into Postfix access tables in a timely manner,
and of course clear it when the user is again sufficiently under
quota.
