The classic response is to delete the sort index located at "~/PowerMail
Files/Message Database index" and let the indices rebuild from scratch.
However your latter "disk full" error could indicate permission problems
or other filesystem problems, so I would first check the disk with
appropriate repair application to rule out physical and logical problems
in the filesystem and then make sure that all files under "PowerMail
Files" was full readable and writeable for the user in question. The
latter can be done in the finder by choosing that folder and set the
proper rights for it and then extend that by clicking "use for included
objects".
