/var running out of space

[Vonleigh Simmons]

	Today in my Daily Output I noticed that my /var partition is running 
out of space. The partition is only 250MB and /var/mail is the biggest 
hog with about 170MB.

	I think that this /var is way too small, considering that 20 mail 
users with 10MB of email each, would be 200MB and could easily saturate 
it.

	I'm wondering what would be the best way of going about this. My 
initial thought was to just link /var/mail to /home/mail and that way 
let it grow however it needs to. However, maybe setting /var/mail to 
it's own partition might be advantageous, although I don't know if this 
requires reformatting the whole HD.

	I don't have access to the server (I'm renting it in a facility), so 
reformatting is not an option, it's also on a mirrored RAID if that 
changes anything.

	Thanks in advance for your help.
