Don't.
Use quotas. Users don't like losing old mail.
Rejected new mail means that:
- The user doesn't lose something they thought they were saving.
- The sender is aware of the problem and (may) contact the user
out-of-band to indicate the problem.
- System reporting may indicate to the user that their mailbox is
full.
