Mainly, four suggestions were provided :
1) Change the file system size of root, but it seems hard to do so.
2) rm /tmp, then create a symbolic link to another file system.
3) Use /tmp as a mount point for the another file system.
4) Source another pop mail server like qualcom qpopper, cucipop.
Suggest 2 seems to be the easiest one.
The symbolic link /tmp -> /var/tmp created have lrwxrwxrwx. I found that
this symbolic link can be removed by any user. I am still figuring out
how this can be prevented.
I found that my /usr/tmp -> /var/tmp with permission lrwxr-xr-x. That
protect the symbolic link from being deleted by other. But I have no
ideal how this can be set. Comments are welcomed.
