assp does NOT care about disk space !
(only the rebuild task shows some informational disk space values)

>Strange that spam wound up in discarded though right?

but if the disk is full, assp may be unable to write any new file and 
updated file (incl. the assp.cfg, stats, sync, tmp) to disk - which leads 
in to a destroyed configuration

if configuration values are missing in the assp.cfg (possibly partly 
written), these values may be set to defaults at startup or recovered from 
a backup (*.bak....) 
assp tries to do its best to recover a destroyed assp.cfg (in several 
ways), but a 'disk full' condition prevent this and the overall result in 
the assp folder is (may be) very unexpected

release change backups of the assp.cfg are stored in the 'backup.config' 
folder - compare the last backup with your current config file
if you know, everything in the assp folder is OK except the assp.cfg, 
configuration changes will fix every issue caused by the disk fault

So the problem would has been solved at Sun, Sep 5, 2021 - but at least at 
Mon, Sep 6, 2021 in the morning.

Seems you think, you can manage this using your own strategy - good luck! 
But keep in mind: bad conditions in any file caused by the fault, can lead 
in to bad behavior or crashes of assp in future (possibly in months or in 
years, depends on the config, GUI actions, configuration changes, perl 
module changes ..................)

looking okay here now.  Strange that spam wound up in discarded 
though right?  Is that something that ASSP does as an emergency last ditch 
effort when a disk fills?  Move the old spam to discarded in an attempt to 
free up space upon cleanup somehow?

also, while I've got you....  This isn't the first time a filling log has 
filled the data drive.  

A couple times, after moving the huge log, I've noticed that my 
messages/spam corpus suddenly only has the files that hit after the log 
cleanup.  I always later find that the spam folder has been moved to the 
discarded folder (as a spam subfolder).   

There is a chance that I carelessly dragged it there once, but multiple 
times seems too coincidental.   Does ASSP do this intentionally when a 
full drive is detected?  not-spam and the others are always intact, it's 
been the spam folder. It's easy to restore, but I need to remember that it 
happened.  The ASSP service starts up quite happily with no files in spam, 
and it's generally only after seeing that the rebuild ran quicker than 
usual overnight that I realize there's virtually nothing in spam. 

Thanks again.

I hoped I had fixed it. New generated files should not cause the SEGV, but 
old filenames may cause it.

No, this will not work. But links will work on windows.

Is there any good reason to this at a production system???

Thanks James. 
The same idea on Windows with a symbolic link should work fine.  I just 
don't know if putting a drive letter in the config is another option. 
My real concern is the SEGV fauls going nuts.

  This was relatively easy on linux. I do not know if Windows has a 
similar
functionality. Basically the ASSP log directories are re-directed to 
another
area with more space.

ASSPDIR="/usr/local/bin/assp2";

ASSPDATA="/data01/var/assp";

assp_mount () {

    echo "Mounting assp volumes..."

    mount --bind ${ASSPDATA}/okmail     ${ASSPDIR}/okmail

    mount --bind ${ASSPDATA}/discarded  ${ASSPDIR}/discarded

    mount --bind ${ASSPDATA}/quarantine ${ASSPDIR}/quarantine

    mount --bind ${ASSPDATA}/spam-yes   ${ASSPDIR}/spam-yes

    mount --bind ${ASSPDATA}/spam-not   ${ASSPDIR}/spam-not

    mount --bind ${ASSPDATA}/logs       ${ASSPDIR}/logs

}
