On a UNIX system: We had a customer report an error 4 when the mail system was attempting to deliver a very large message (30 mb). The MTA is on one system, and the client (MailWorks for UNIX) is on another system. The MailWorks interconnect process was attempting to transfer the message to the MTA. Many large files were created in the /var/mta/workspace/volatile directory on the system running the mta, and eventually the /var file system was filled up. The question: which system ran out of memory? Was this a memory issue, or could it have been a disk space issue? -Stan

Another bit of data: Apparently this happened to them twice with two different messages (of different sizes), but in both cases, the files that appeared in the volatile directory were exactly 13,416,448 bytes long (which is considerably smaller than the original message). Is this number significant in any way? _Stan | |||||
