Know what a full mailbox does
Make room before mail starts being turned away.
Mail lives in a fixed amount of space. When it is full, new messages are turned away.
Nothing already there is lost. A few large attachments usually filled it.
Key points
- A full mailbox turns new mail away and tells the sender
- Deleting a few messages with large attachments is usually enough
What to remember
- Attachments take the space, not the words.
- A full mailbox turns mail away. It never deletes yours.
