That would be exactly the problem! I was grepping around for "quota" in
/etc/postfix, but discovered that the actual config option is:
mailbox_size_limit = 51200000
Even if it is unset, it still defaults to this value.
Thanks very much Dallman.

As you can see, that file is rather large. It is because I run imap
not pop3 and don't delete any messages.
Now if I email to mike(_at_)domain(_dot_)com with just a little test email,
it
gets delivered. If I send it a big mail (like with an attachment),
then I get the failure and the mail gets bounced.
Any ideas what could be causing this?
My wild guess: You are very enar the 50Mb out-of-the-box quota limit postfix
applies to mailboxes; yet small messages are still being added because they
still fit in under 50Mb (52428800 bytes? Not sure, but that's 1024 * 1024 *
50).
