Signal 25 is usually SIGXFSZ -- obviosly you are accepting mail that
exceeds the maximum file size.
Well, now it gets interesting. I removed that email from the queue and all
went normally until this morning:

(temporary failure. Command output: maildrop: signal 0x19)
vorl...@paradigm-omega.net
ro...@localhost.paradigm-omega.net
[SNIP]
Just a question. What kind of mailbox do the recipients have? I am
betting on mbox format and the mailbox has exceeded the maximum ulimit
filesize. Either that or your OS or filesystem may have a maximum file
size limit (usually 2G) that is exceeded.
