It is possible that INBOX is exceeding the mailbox size limit as
configured in postfix. Check with "postconf mailbox_size_limit", and
compare with the actual size of the file.
Okay, you hit the nail on the head. mailbox_size_limit is set to 51200000.
So I added the line mailbox_size_limit = 102400000 to
/etc/postfix/main.cf.
I then did mv INBOX.old INBOX. I could now recieve new mails in the old
INBOX which was over 50mb. I didn't even need to reload postfix.
The funny thing is, it still works even after commenting out the line
mailbox_size_limit = 102400000 in main.cf.
The mailbox is now over 55 mb and seems to be working fine. Maybe it was
that the mailbox got stuck at a particular size ?
regards and thanks for the prompt help,
Sharukh.
