| A couple of days ago my mail server stopped working and all I'm getting is this postfix error message: muttley postfix/smtpd[2718]: NOQUEUE: reject: MAIL from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]: 452 4.3.1 Insufficient system storage; proto=SMTP helo=<notify.ossec.net> muttley postfix/smtpd[2718]: warning: not enough free space in mail queue: 17719296 bytes < 1.5*message size limit So I upped the limits of my postfix config settings to: postconf -e "mailbox_size_limit = 1048576000" postconf -e "message_size_limit = 30720000" But still no joy. Then I had a look at my free diskspace: root@muttley:/# df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/xvda 10321208 9781896 15024 100% / none 293304 116 293188 1% /dev none 297888 0 297888 0% /dev/shm none 297888 72 297816 1% /var/run none 297888 0 297888 0% /var/lock none 297888 0 297888 0% /lib/init/rw none 10321208 9781896 15024 100% /var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs root@muttley:/# df -i Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/xvda 655360 407790 247570 63% / none 73326 498 72828 1% /dev none 74472 1 74471 1% /dev/shm none 74472 43 74429 1% /var/run none 74472 3 74469 1% /var/lock none 74472 1 74471 1% /lib/init/rw none 655360 407790 247570 63% /var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs Apparently this is a known bug with ureadahead but I haven't been able to find anyone else mention that it was affecting postfix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ureadahead/+bug/501715 Anyway I installed the fix (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ureadahead) but I'm still getting the same errors. Is this the root of the problem do you think or is it something else? Can anyone help me out with this it's driving me nuts?!
