Hello, I had my mail server run out of room in /var today.
No mail could be sent or received. (Don' laugh to hard)
Anyway to remedy the problem I moved everything from /var to
/usr/var and did the whole ln- s thing too. Now everyone can
send just fine but not receive. This is the error I get:

-ERR [SYS/TEMP] maillock error 'Other lock error' (5) on
'/var/mail/usermailbox': No such file or directory (2)

What is that and how do I fix it? I assume when the problem
occurred, a lock file of somesort was created to stop mail.
Maybe?

Also I am running FreeBSD 4.3 with sendmail and qpopper.

Thanks
Jeremy Buckner
