Learning The Hard Way

I stopped getting email today through my newly installed mail server at work. I checked the logs to find this gem:

13:09:21.89 1 ACCOUNT(ajs) [32954] failed to deliver. Error Code=end of file error
13:09:21.89 1 DEQUEUER [32954] LOCAL(ajs) failed
13:09:21.89 0 TEMPFILE(32955) writing failed. Error Code=disk is full

Impossible. The server has a huge hard drive! So I df...

/dev/sda5              1027768    927448     48112  96% /var
/dev/sda3             14358012     32828  13595836   1% /home

Could I be a bigger idiot for not having checked this? I mean, I didn't install the OS, and whoever installed the OS must not have known that /var is where all the data goes, so I should have checked. God, I suck.

It's going to be a long weekend.
