0.9.7? that was released in 2001 IIRC, and ceased being supported in 2005, that's 8 years ago, are you really suggesting dovecot be patched to process something that's so old, you likely have far more problems, of a security nature that is. On Thu, 2013-09-12 at 07:45 +0200, Andreas Schulze wrote:

Dovecot should never generate a message to send to sender, this is classified as backscatter. Your MTA should get the quota answer from dovecot when the sender connects, and tries to mail and fail then, it is the MTA (maillog file) you need to look at to see why your MTA is not tempfailing the conn
