What do I do if I exceed my mailbox size?
There are various ways to maximize your available mailbox space:
- delete old messages
- regularly empty the Deleted Items folder (Outlook 2010-2013 has an option to empty Deleted Items every time Outlook is closed)
- look for messages with large attachments and move those file attachments to a different storage space, such as OneDrive, then don’t forget to delete the attachment from the message or delete the message and attachment
- clean out the Sent Items folder
- create personal folders on your network drive and store email there instead of your inbox
