[Mailman-Users] Cron errors

I did check all of my partitions, and the partition for /var/ has about 20gb of
space.  What further investigation DID reveal is that the partition that
handles everything else really did run out of space, as a result of an out of
control backup temp file.  First thing I did when I got in this morning was OK
an error message on the server (no mention of lack of space), then check my
email.  By the time I saw the email notifications, the temp file was gone and
there was plenty of space.

Bottom line, problem solved.
