qmail does not ever print an error message like Yikes!
just look at the code and you can see that.

Certainly Maildir with qmail-pop3d will help here, though it
should be noted that many clients don't cope well if a download
exceeds a certain time such as the time between mailbox checks.
Most of the pop servers that work on mbox format mailboxes have
to scan the whole file searching for "^From

I assume you changed your default delivery method to ./Maildir/ which will

If you are trying to retrieve mails from there now with pop, you need

mbx is the name of a format that UW-IMAP supports. It's an
all-messages-in-one-file database format file. It's not as ugly as mbox where
all the messages are concatenated together (which requires so much

I suppose you could set queuelifetime to 1 second. This will fail
permanently if delivery fails on the second delivery (or possibly the first,
depending on how busy your machine is.) If you want to kill every email on
the first deferral you will need to write a patch.
