Running OpenSMTPd 5.4.3 on
OpenBSD 5.6-current (GENERIC) #0: Tue Aug 12 00:05:24 CEST 2014

It seems that if my /var/mail is full and incomming mail
cannot be written into the mailboxes, it get logged as

It is of course an admin error to let /var/mail get filled,
and OpenSMTPd handles the undelivered mail well (it got delivered
once I made room in /var/mail and did a 'smtpctl schedule all'),
but couldn't the error message be more descriptive?
Or does 'delivery' not know what the error was?
