I support an email relay that installs on top of sql2000/2005. If a file group gets to 80% full, the server stops accepting new mail.

"Our server stopped!"
"Does the event viewer say 80% full?"
"Yes!"
"Lets add some size to the file group."
- insert 50 minute argument about them having auto grow turned on, and me responding with, if the processing turns off at 80%, and the autogrow occurs at 90% full... -
"Ok, I'll resize the file manually. I don't see how... Oh, mail is flowing again."
