Are you monitoring disk space ???
Imail can be setup to do that and generate a message to warn you when it
gets to the limit you set.
You can go to http://www.ipnp.net:8181 and see it in action. All this shows
is the monitoring.
See http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-19990727-DM03.htm to learn more
Color me old fashioned, but disk space use is a normal function of an
administrator.
