Wait and see what the gurus say, but I would probably create a
partition, mount it, copy everything in /varspool/mail to it, delete
everything under var spool mail, and remount the new partition at  mount
point /var/spool/mail.  Ought to work.

Might not even have to delete the stuff under /va/spool/mail, not sure
what the implications would be.  Hmmm.  Some thing else to play with.

*nixes are really cool in that a drive partition can start anywhere in
the directory tree, not just under root.

Good luck,

Bret
