   Ok, I think this will do.   
      
   What will be the behaviour of for example outlook express when it gets   
   "remote mailbox full message" ?   
      
   Will it ever try to resend it ?   
      
   (My bet is probably not... so there is still some possibility of missing   
   mails but ok that's up to the sender to understand what's going on... but   
   that might be a bit difficult... how to tell what messages did and did not   
   get through ? ;) I would reckon/expect that the "remote mailbox is full   
   message" would include some part of the original message ? at least subject   
   line or so ?)

   I think it's no different than a real-world-post/mail box.   
      
   Which could also get full with real mail ;) :)
