two hosts were down on 25/06/2014 during period 06:00 to 8:30 , but contacts didn't receive notifications , when I checked notifications it shows that there is notifications and sent as Dispatcher show .but when I check /var/log/maillog as attached I found this messages:

Jun 25 06:00:13 nms1 postfix/local[58245]: 5E1F9280193: to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.02, delays=0.01/0/0/0.01, dsn=5.2.2, status=bounced (cannot update mailbox /var/mail/root for user root. error writing message: File too large)


I checked :

mailbox_size_limit=512000000

also the size of root file 500000

so please how can I fixed that

If you set:
there is not going to be a limit.

Then you will need to restart postfix:

I did that.

Did this fix your issue or you are still getting the "File too large" errors?

yes, this error doesn't appear in maillog file.
