In summary, Evo's mailbox is quickly filling up again, and she is not able to keep up with the amount of messages she is receiving. She suggests that the forum increase the mentor inbox limit to prevent her mailbox from becoming full.

Why not ask for a larger mailbox? Or take mine; I don't use it. :)

I'm sure, if we upped the mentor inbox limit, we would not prevent Evo's mailbox from becoming full... instead, we'd just increase time between cleanings.

Yeah, the more messages I'm allowed, the more I save. :redface:

I'm not invisible anymore because we have a visiting dignitary here that appreciated knowing when I am actually online.

:rofl: Maybe you should write a little bit of code to automatically delete the contents of her PM box on a weekly basis, since that seems to be about how quickly she fills it up again lately. I predict it would only take her one week and 6 days to get in the practice of archiving and cleaning it out. :biggrin: :devil:

Well, you did not have to go through all that trouble just for me :biggrin:

P.S. I prefer to be called your Excellency.

Maybe some of it could be forwarded to *cough* a gmail account if it reaches a certain limit.

Yes, your excellency.

If I come up there, will you feed me crabcakes?

And it's not even because people have dirty minds...

I don't understand. Could you explain?
 
  • #23
Guess I'm the only one here with a dirty mind...but no, I really couldn't get myself to actually explain it! And if I did, I'd have Evo's scorn to contend with, and I'm certain Hell hath no fury to match that.

1. What does the message "Evo, your mailbox is full" mean?

The message "Evo, your mailbox is full" means that your mailbox has reached its storage capacity and can no longer receive any new emails.

2. Why am I getting the message "Evo, your mailbox is full"?

You are getting this message because your mailbox has exceeded its storage limit, which is usually set by your email provider.

3. How can I fix the issue of my mailbox being full?

To fix this issue, you can delete old or unnecessary emails, or you can upgrade your email storage plan to accommodate more emails.

4. Can I still receive emails if my mailbox is full?

No, you cannot receive any new emails if your mailbox is full. You will need to free up some space or upgrade your storage plan before you can receive new emails.

5. Will I lose any emails if my mailbox is full?

If your mailbox is full and you continue to receive new emails, the new emails may bounce back to the sender or be automatically deleted. It is important to regularly check and manage your email storage to avoid losing important emails.
