URGENT Server Dead - Error Too Many Files Open

My Server is showing a load averege of over 50 for the past 1 hour. Everything seems to be dead.

I see 15000 mails in queue.

I see tens of procmail processes.

I can see most mails that are in queue is of one particular user who has utilized his disk quota and now his mails lie in queue.

Whatever command i type on shell it returns one of the followoing two error;

1) error while loading shared libraries: libproc.so.2.0.7: cannot open shared object file: Error 23
or
2) Too many open files in system


What do do? Should i delete mails from queue?
