However, based on the fact that this is mail.local, and the file system looks fine when you look at it, this is almost certainly the bug that somebody else mentioned, that somebody is trying to deliver a very large mail message. Later versions of FreeBSD (I think 3.2 and up, but it could be 3.3) no longer have this problem. In your case, you can do one of these: 1. Go into /var/spool/mqueue and look for a very big file, which will have a name like dfSAA00420. Delete it and the corresponding file qfSAA00420 (same name except for the q at the start). 2. Install a newer version of mail.local, which will create its temp file in /var/tmp instead of /tmp. 3. Create a memory file system with enough space and mount /tmp on it. I would personally go for (1). People shouldn't be sending 15 MB mail messages.
