It is still the same. Our server won't accept SMTP.

/var/ now has lots of room, and I've reset the machine a few times already.

It is a linux box, and qmail-smtpd is started from tcpserver this:

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -v -u 501 -g 500 0 smtp
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 &

Should I just start killing qmail-smtpd processes?

How to fix this?
