   Now when large e-mail boxes get e-mail, procmail fails with

Check your mail quota settings.

FTR, this list has a searchable archive. It was pretty easy to locate a number of messages discussing this MTA issue, including:

Uh, because postfix is a different MTA and has different basic settings.
