(1) You did remember to HUP the daemon after changing the config?
(2) If the sending machine uses the SIZE option in the SMTP dialogue,
then Exim checks the spool space, even if you have set the check_ option
to zero. If the SIZE of the message is bigger than the disc space, the
error is given.
You can do some tests by running Exim with the -bs and -d5 options. The
debugging will output information about the space checking.
