Maildrop problem

Need more space in the folder /var/vmail

Hi, I have Debian 5, and my filesystem is:

# df
S.ficheros Bloques de 1K Usado Dispon Uso% Montado en
/dev/md1 5162728 1235444 3665028 26% /
tmpfs 2009864 0 2009864 0% /lib/init/rw
udev 10240 92 10148 1% /dev
tmpfs 2009864 0 2009864 0% /dev/shm
/dev/md2 715398792 157468 678901096 1% /home

I try to move the user vmail to /home/vmail but not working.

I have the error:
maildrop[24534]: Unable to create a dot-lock at /var/vmail/xxxxxxx

If you can not move the user folder /var/vmail, can I place in another partition?

Thanks
Pedro

 

Solved

I think I solved.
Let's see what you think

cd /var
mv vmail /home
ln -s /home/vmail vmail

Thus consumption of disk space on the partition /home and mail working perfect.
