In the message from the dovecot the <localuser>@<server> is written, this
information is of no use to the sender, because he does not know the local
user name of the receiver.

The bounce mail must therefore contain the e-mail address that the sender
has addressed, the virtual address so to speak.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Yours sincerely

Why discard over-quota email? If you allow Dovecot to reject delivery, then
the local sender will receive a proper delivery status notification.
