Are you using exim's built-in maildir transport, or an external program like
deliverquota, to actually deliver the mail?
What does 'df -k' show?
Have you configured quotas? If so, how? (per-user or per-group quotas
enforced through the O/S, or exim's quota mechanism, or deliverquota's
maildir+ mechanism?)

That's not good, but it's probably unrelated.
I note the following from doc/ChangeLog in exim-4.12:
84. If Exim's retry configuration was changed so as to bounce a certain
delivery failure immediately, for example to bounce quota errors:
* quota
and there were messages on the queue that had previously been deferred
because of this error, Exim crashed when trying to deliver them in a queue
run. Now it will make one more delivery attempt and bounce on failure.
So an upgrade to exim-4.12 may fix the problem.
Cheers,
Brian.
