Question re: Qmail and disk quotas

Greetings, all.

I have imposed disk quotas on some users on a machine I administer. The
machine runs Qmail and the mail for certain domains is placed under the
home directory of the user that owns the domain.

If the user goes over quota and exceeds the grace period, they will no
longer be able to create new files until they get back under the soft quota
limit. If an account goes over quota for longer than the grace period how
will this affect their incoming mail? Will qmail still deliver their mail
in to their account or will it be bounced?

I don't have a user anywhere near their quota limits yet. I'm just checking
on expected behaviour.

Cheers!
