While you don't mention what OS or MTA you're using, I'm going to take
a guess and say some version of RedHat with the default installation
of Sendmail. Even if I'm wrong, the solution is probably about the
same.
If it's sendmail, there's a line in your sendmail.mc that defines
procmail as the local delivery agent. It will look something like:
FEATURE(local_procmail,`',`procmail
with a bunch of options and variables after it. In that line, one of
the options is "-t" which tells procmail to put messages it can't
deliever back into the MTA's queue for later delivery. Remove the
"-t" option and you will get bounces back to the sender instead with
an explanation of what went wrong. After you've removed the "-t"
remake your sendmail.cf from the altered sendmail.mc and restart
sendmail.
If you're using some other MTA, I suspect it's just a matter of
finding where the procmail definition is and removing the "-t" option,
but I don't have any experience so I can't say for sure.

Hi
I'm trying to get quotas working
The quota part is working well but when I test it with a message that is
over the quota size I get the error
stat=Deferred: local mailer (/usr/bin/procmail) exited with EX_TEMPFAIL
on the /var/log/maillog
but no notification message is sent to the sender.
Is this normal?
Kind Regards
