Ah, looks like logrotate had stopped running, and /var on the leo raq 
filled up. (For those who aren't aware: RAQs have a stupidly small /var 
partition, so logs need very regular zip+rotate.)

Looks like Dean caught this about 2 hours ago, so stuff should be working 
its way through now. (Thanks Dean!)

On a vaguely related note: many, many ISPs will be hard-bouncing mail for 
the next few days, as Osirusoft (maintainers of one of the most popular 
mail RBLs around) went totally dark yesterday, and black-holed the *entire 
internet* without warning. So we're going to have a couple of days of 
bounce-o-rama whilst various ISPs reconfig their mail servers, etc.
