I don't think that LMTP/LDA use passdb. I'm pretty sure that they use

The delivery agents just need to lookup if the recipient exists and
where to store the mail.

OK, good point.  Now I tried to disable LMTP for one user by means of a
special userdb that would return 'return-fail' when it finds a user.  I
figured then LMTP would reject the message.  Not so much though ...
this is the special userdb I am using.  The default fields are there to
keep error messages in logs low.

userdb {
 driver = passwd-file
 args = /etc/dovecot/deny/%s/deny-user
 default_fields = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/tmp/%Ln

 result_success = return-fail
}

Attached you find the config I tested.

you have lots of userdb's in your config. If you use %s in the general ones, I would remove the special ones in the "lmtp" section at all.

Also, try this #1

userdb {
  args = /etc/dovecot/deny/%s/deny-user
  default_fields = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/tmp/non-existant-name
  driver = passwd-file
}

That way, you get an hit for that userdb. Now return an _non-existant_ mail location. You get an error in the logs, but LMTP should tempfail the request.

===============

Try #2

If you enforce quota and tempfail the message, if the user is over quota, lower the user's quota to 1 byte temporarily.

===============

Try this #3

Just use one userdb:

userdb {
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext
  driver = ldap
}

Then extent your userdb query by:

(&(original query)(!(attr=%s)))

choose any attr'ibute with text, such as description, that does no harm to other services. Then the LMTP service should get no hit and should, IMHO, tempfail the delivery.
