Previous version of postfix is 2.8.3. Before up gradation of postfix i had
abackup of old versions of main.cf & master.cf.
I configured the courier-imap, quota option is there, I enabled that one.
After that i mentioned in main.cf file as below

virtual_mailbox_limit_override = yes
virtual_overquota_bounce = yes
virtual_mailbox_limit_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/vquota
virtual_maildir_limit_message = "Sorry the user's maildir has overdrawn his
disksapce quota, Please try again later."

Support quota is exceeded, mail is receiving instead of bouncing.
