I think it'd be better to fix the underlying problem, which is that the
/tmp quota is apparently smaller than the mailbox quota.

SBC is at Provide.Net working on the lines now. Apparently, the problem is
extensive; they hope to get it fixed tonight, but if they can't, they'll be
back on it first thing in the morning.
Right now, the lines are ringing open.

Thanks for the update, Joe. I wonder what the problem was? Bad wires, I
suppose.

I've now reset the quotas on /tmp for all users who have logged in since the
middle of December (Dec 19 14:45 2004, to be precise).
I've also set newuser to assign the new quota to any new users.

I note that there were a couple of connections on tty01 today, before SBC
took the lines down for repair. So I did get the modems connected to the
'right' lines this time. :)

Thanks again Joe. Clever of you not to assign new quotas to non-using users
who would just get more spam.
Today my abridged spam filter posted above caught 13 of my 15 spams that
arrived since midnight: 3 X-message, 3 img.src, 1 java, 2 medication, 2 meds,
1 pills, 1 prescripiton, also (using the longer filter) a generic.drug and
a To: true. Before I rearranged the order of filters half of the spams were
caught because of the To: line. It is interesting how most of my current
spam is due to our lack of national health insurance or care.

I think SBC has finished the work on our telephone lines.

I've got a "system non-problem" to report. Typically I get at least
50 spam e-mails per day. This morning there were only 5 spams.
And just now I checked, and I have received *no* mail at all!
What happened? Did someone connect a spam filter?

I tried to send an e-mail (from within Pine) and failed on
three successive attempts. The third time I noticed a briefly
flashed message in the status line at the bottom, something
about "Error 451, error writing spool file, mail not sent."
(not an exact quote.)

[Mail not sent. Sending error: 451 Error while writing spool file]

There are some overgrown log files in /var/log that could probably
be rotated and compressed to help alleviate the crunch.
