I can't believe I didn't think of that. I had quite a few nodes that
hadn't picked mail up in .. well, months (nodes are down). I've been
negelcting my system for the past year or so, and just let it all build up.
I just cleaned out about 6 gigs of outbound mail and files. We'll see if
that cleans it up.
