Check also for attempts to send a large email message.

Those are *very* small / and /var partitions, especially if the size of
the /usr* partitions is any indication of the number of users or load of

Does FreeBSD's install still suggest 30Mb is a good size for a /var
partition? One or two large emails in /var/mail/ and it's used up...

Cheers.
