How
can I get my "mailbox quota" increased?
The following
steps are on how to fix the exceeded Disk Quota::
- Delete as many e-mails
that are not essential and then be sure to empty the Deleted
items folder. To empty the Deleted Items Folder : either in
the Outlook Shortcuts or the Folder List right click on the Deleted
Items Folder and select the option to Empty Deleted Items Folder.
- Run the auto Archive
on a regular basis. To program AutoArchive go to TOOLS
menu. Select Options. Click on OTHER tab and
click on Autoarchive. Establish the frequency of archiving
i.e., every 60 days. Select "prompt before autoarchiving."
Pay close attention to "Default archive file:" field. This file
is where your old email will be stored. Your old mail can only
be accessed if this file is present on the computer. If you delete
this file or it gets corrupted, you will lose all your old mail.
Click OK to save your changes. Then go to the File
menu on the top of the window. Click on Archive... from
the drop down menu. Select first option Archive all folders acccording
to the Auto Archive Settings. Click Okay.
- Save all file attachements
sent to you via e-mail to your hard drive and then remove the
attachment from the e-mail so that only the e-mail is saved on
the server. This takes less space. To save an attachment
to the hard drive:
- Open the
e-mail containing the attachment.
- Right Click
on the attachment
- Choose Save
as and designate where you will save the file to.
- Right click
on attachment again.
- Choose remove.
This will delete
the attachment from the e-mail but keep the e-mail. close the e-mail
and say yes to saving the changes.
All of these alternatives
or a combination of some will clean up some disk space on ADM

YOUR QUOTA CAN NOT BE INCREASED *
