$ pwd
/var/spool/postoffice
$ df -k .
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb2               513179    333354    153318  68% /var

$df -i .
Filesystem            Inodes   IUsed   IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/sdb2             132600   10636  121964    8% /var

looks like enough space and inodes left.

Could it be a 64bit problem or glibc-2.1 related?
