The line 3564 is a quarantining code, and it is telling you
that it can't quarantine a message because the disk
partition hosting /var/amavis/quarantine is near-full.
I hope you have not placed the quarantine directory on a tempfs.
A more usual place for a quarantine directory is /var/virusmails

The MTA receives a temporary failure, the mail stays in its queue
for a later retry. Nothing is lost, unless the situation persists
for several days, after which the MTA will inform senders
about its failure to deliver.
