System programmer response

Possible reasons for this message are:
  • The UNIX file system dead letter directory is full or nearly full.
  • The UNIX file system dead letter directory is not accessible in write mode.
If you determine that the dead letter directory is full or nearly full, then do one of the following:
  • Perform the following steps to free some space in the directory
    1. Issue the MODIFY SUSPEND command to suspend new spool file processing.
    2. Delete all unneeded dead letters.
    3. Issue the MODIFY REFRESH command to enable the application to write dead letters into the configured or default directory again.
    4. Issue the MODIFY RESUME command to resume new spool file processing.
  • Perform the following steps to use a larger directory:
    1. Allocate a larger z/OS UNIX file system for the dead letter directory.
    2. Change the DeadLetterDirectory configuration statement to specify the new directory.
    3. Issue a MODIFY REFRESH command to use the larger directory.

If you determine that the UNIX file system dead letter directory is not accessible in write mode, perform the following steps:

  1. Do one of the following:
    • Mount the UNIX file system in write mode.
    • Specify a directory to which you have write access in the DeadLetterDirectory configuration statement in the CSSMTP configuration file.
  2. Issue a MODIFY REFRESH command to use the new directory.
