On exim 3 we had to used these lines in exim.conf:

* quota
* refused

This allowed us to remove quota exceeded and refused emails from our mail queue and was perfect.

But in exim4 when we turn these 2 option on emails which target to a full mailbox who had a spam filter bacome huge. Sounds like a loop. Here is an example:
