So that is your problem.

Please find out first if it really is qmail-queue; I can't imagine that
(unless there's a bug, or a DoS attack against your qmail) the
queue eats up all 128k inodes and only 171MB of disk space. (I
would think you have a zillion zero-size files in your /var.)
Generally, you have two options:
1. Find out who's eating the inodes. Fix that process. Delete the
spurious (zero-sized) files.
2. Backup your /var. Reformat it with more inodes. Restore from
backup. Run queue-fix (available at www.qmail.org).
