Do you have
         spool_free true
set in dnews.conf? if so change it to false

You can safely manually move some bucket files from the full partition to
another one then restart dnews to unjam it

If that doesn't fix it, please send me:
         dnews.conf
         tellnews status
         tellnews showdisks
