Some members of the postfix list, where you already asked for the same
problem, have replied about it: make space in your /  , that's simple.

One of the replies was:

"
You're the admin? You should know :)

Find out where large amounts of diskspace are being used:

cd /
du -s * | sort -n

Something has eaten all your diskspace. Find out what it was.
"

You really should consider using this advice.
