i got this undelivered/returned to sender mail earlier today while setting up
a mail server for a customer:
The Postfix program cannot access mailbox /var/mail/xxxxx for user xxxxx.
error writing message: File too large
the mailbox was about 70MB, 1000 or so messages (copied from ms outlook to the
server via imap, part of a new mail server installation). imap had no
trouble reading/writing it. this was on a pretty stock redhat 8.0
installation with the standard postfix and UW imap rpms. after i broke the
file up into smaller pieces postfix was fine. using direct delivery, not
procmail (that will come later).
anyone got a line on this? does postfix have some sort of limitation on how
big a mbox it can write to?
