this problem is (still) not a pine issue. The message tells you that
you should tidy up your place because the part of disk space which has
been given to you is all used up. There exist some possible solutions,
to be used in the mentioned order

(a) remove old, now unwanted since no more needed files (some old
    mails, eg) 
(b) bribe your sys admin / help desk clerk to rise your disk quota
(c) ...

I know, I've been missing some ways to solve the problem (shoot other
users and get their disk quota for example) ... but this I consider
unprofessional.

After you've cleaned some files your configuration file can be saved
again (perhaps you should take a glance at it, it might be broken) and
sent-mail should work again.

Along with the good advice of Norbert, you should also be made aware that
these types of problems should be first worked thru you ISP's helpdesk.

VSNL has a helpdesk in Deli, yes?

Hi Norbert!
Thanks..I figured all this ...but deleting almost all my messages in the
inbox and sent mail box did not help...so...anyways I have solved the
problem...Thanks.
