Lately we are seeing this error in the maillog several times a day: Oct 28 15:10:03 mail mimedefang-multiplexor[37348]: Slave 1 stderr: MIME::Parser: can't flush: No space left on device at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/MIME/Parser.pm line 815, <FILE> line 2700428.
The /var drive has plenty of room. The /tmp drive is nearly full with 5 large files owned by mailnull: -rw------- 1 mailnull wheel 167779519 Oct 28 12:39 qhNzfFSRG3 If I delete one of these large files in /tmp, they reappear after a few minutes. This started about a week ago on a system that has been running OK for quite a while. FreeBSD 7.1 Mimedefang 2.64_1 clamav 0.97.6 spamassassin 3.3.2 perl 5.8.9 I have tried restarting mimedefang. Are these big files being created by mimedefang? I didn't think it used /tmp by default. Could this problem be caused by cleverly crafted spam? Suggestions on how to troubleshoot this would be appreciated.
