[BlueOnyx:05134] Re: question on importing sendmail content fromnon-blueonyx server

[trasor]

Ok.  I managed to import the users from sendmail server to Blueonyx.  I 
am trying to import their email and running into an error.  When I 
attempt to import /var/spool/mail it imports so far then I receive an 
error stating 'No space left on device'.  I am importing approx. 8gb of 
email, how can I increase the folder size without losing the data.  
Every option I know of for resizing could result in the loss of data.
