O.K. we could serverside use a separate partition/storage for the

set some sort of  "minimum disk free" than stop writing and wait for a
sysop to check?


well, it would stop after it can't write because disk full or quota 
reached - what else should it do?



Would be nice, as other software can do this already 


man quota
