OK, this is a two part problem.  First, the "Message copy failed" string is
in a section of code that has not been translated in SunOS, only in Linux
(or any other platform that Pine has declared as ANSI).

The string "disk quota exceeded" is from the C library call to strerror()
which returns an error string based on the return value of a system call.
On Linux, the C library is the latest version, and is fully
internationalized.  Unfortunately, the SunOS library is somewhat older and
is not translated, so all strings returned by strerror() will be in English
on the SunOS platform.  This means that system error messages will appear
in English on CCN.
