I noticed this error in our mail queue:

Deferred: 451 queuename: Cannot create "qfXAA25590" in "/usr/spool/mqueue"
(euid=41): Disc quota exceeded

I have never seen that before! Well, there is no /usr/spool on our system
(of course), AND there is no uid 41:

bradley@ns2: {30} % id 41
id: 41: No such user

I checked the message that caused this error, and it seems normal.

Is this cause for concern? A security breach? This is boggling my mind. I
did some looking through the sendmail source and I see queuename is a
function in queue.c. The line producing this error appears to be 2078 or
2093.

Thanks.
