Question..does (or can) mail.local report any errors back to sendmail? If
so, I wonder if a wrapper could be made for mail.local that checked the size
of the mailbox against a certain quota..then if it was above the quota...an
error was returned from the mail.local wrapper..if all is okay..actual
mail.local file is run.
Just a though.
