This sounds like the standard mail that is sent from the mail server
(in the postmasters name) whenever the mailbox/disk is full. It might
be a good idea to send this kind of mail in person-to-person but not
as good idea when someone mails via a mail-list. Note that the
mail-list itself doesn't seem to be plauged, which shows that it is at
least smart enough...
In any case, this is a fairly legal mail even if it is anoying...
The missapplied "on vacation" mails that (god forbid) loop it's own
message is much more annoying... I once saw one that was good for some
several hundred (was it around 1000??) mails from a single persons
vacation message... the (large German firm) did not even have a
postmaster email address!!! Now, THAT was anoying.

We will see, hopefully someone has fixed up the disk.
Cheers,
Magnus
