I did that. Now it no longer queues over quota messages but generates a bounce message to the sender that message delivery failed. For the most part these messages are spam with nonexistant senders. This means the bounces still clog the spool. What I would have liked seen is sendmail refusing the message during the conversation with the sending MTA, therefore eliminating the need for a bounce message. I realized that this is probably not possible because the over quota conditioned isn't recognized until sendmail received the complete message.
