I am using procmail with deliver as recommended on the wiki to send

working fine, but now I'm finding messages like this:Sep 17 12:13:47 hosty deliver(whoey): write() failed with mbox file / var/mail/whoey: File too large
I don't think this is a setrlimit problem -- the host operating
system is OpenBSD 4.0. My dovecot version is 1.0.13. Is there a maximum size
used by deliver? Or is this a procmail problem? It looks like the message is
coming from deliver.I don't think this is a postfix problem -- my max message size 33M in postfix.
From http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA:
Note that Postfix's mailbox_size_limit setting applies to all files
that are written to. So if you have a limit of 50 MB, deliver can't
write to log files larger than 50 MB and you'll start getting
temporary failures.
Applies to mbox files just as well as log files.
