Thanks for the advice. I had found that and tried it prior to the post.
Finally tracked it down to be a huge amount of files in the
/home/spool/amavis folder (my virus protection software). Figured it out,
got it fixed and upgraded to mailscanner. Working fine now. But thanks to
everyone for the quick response.

We use this script to clean up the old virus mails:

file: /etc/cron.daily/remove_old_virusmails.sh

        #!/bin/bash
        #script to remove files over 7 days old from /home/virusmails
        echo
        echo
        echo begin quarantine cleanup
        find /home/virusmails -type f -atime +7 -exec rm "{}" \;
        echo completed quarantine cleanup
        echo
        echo
