I shouldn't do lists before I finish my first coffee of teh day :-> I missed your using system accounts so Charles may be on the right track, you need to find the size of your existing mailbox, search for mailbox_size_limit if you have not altered this value in main.cf use postconf -d to see its value, about 50MB I think. postfix uses a rather small value as default size limit, you may not have 6 MB free in that limit. alter it to 100MB or something like that. You can also set it to 0 to disable the limit. Cheers
