Hi all, here's an argh question for you, sorry if it's a faq - I searched,
but did not find....

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!

Rob
