You might be able to generate mail back via rejecting email e.g. any email coming with specific address at MTA level such as Postfix/EXIM. Afaik, dovecot doesn't generate mail back when mail box having already exceeded quota limit but just reject the email while MTA can deny the email at SMTP level when it arrives and before getting delivered via LMTP/LDA and generates automatic response with message like 541/550 error to the sender.
