Let me suggest slightly different approaches:
1.- You could have /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang making the decisions
instead of sendmail or system quota. There you can set your own rules
and sendmail will abide them. This gives you far better control and
you're limited by your own imagination.
2.- Implement a mail server with quota capabilities. For instance
cyrus-imap. There you can set quota limits, warning messages to users,
percentages and so on. This is the easiest approach.
Regards,
Mikhail.
