I'm running FreeBSD on a p200 w/ 64M RAM, running a mail server for approximately 2000 customers. Quite frequently, I'm seeing the following message: Sep 8 20:44:55 box /kernel: pid 28800 (mail.local), uid 0 on /: file system full Sep 8 20:54:12 box /kernel: pid 302 (mail.local), uid 0 on /: file system full yet I have lots of free space: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted /dev/sd0a 31775 17137 12096 59% 987 6691 13% / Swap is not in use. And it only ever seems to be with mail.local. Before I beefed up the box, it was running at 16Mb, and I saw these errors quite frequently then, but not many more times... Comments, questions, thoughts, ANSWERS? Thanks!
