  E-Mails

This article deals with checking the size of hosting service emails and individual mailboxes. If you need to increase the capacity, follow the instructions Email – Mailbox Storage Upgrade.

Remaining Mailbox Space

When the mailbox storage is used up to 90% or 98%, the system notifies you via email (unless you set it otherwise according to Emails – Customer Admin Panel Settings).

A completely full mailbox blocks both receiving and sending mail. You can solve this issue by:

Check in Customer Administration Panel

  1. Log into the customer administration panel.

  3. From the list, select the service where you want to check mailboxes.

Common Issues

Common issues with checking mailbox capacity include:

Inaccurate Mailbox Size

Issue: After deleting emails from boxes, the system still displays the old value.

Cause: The system does not continuously update the displayed values. The time of the last update is usually displayed next to the data.

Solution: If you need to update your mailbox size as soon as possible, ask support to update your email quota manually. Include the name of the service.

FAQ

Question: How do I find out which data fills the mailbox the most?
Answer: The easiest way to find out if individual mailboxes are full is in the administration. You can find out how the subfolders of the mailbox are filled in WebMail in Settings >> Folders >> (Selected folder) >> Size. The size of individual e-mails is shown in the overview.
