| 2)Examine the Folder List on the left of the screen. Your 'Local Folders', as their name would suggest, are stored locally on your PC. (Messages in your local folders do NOT count towards your mail quota) |
| 3)The folders at the bottom-left contain all your server-based mail. Messages in these folders contribute to your mail quota. As you have a fixed amount of space on the server it is important to monitor the amount of mail in these directories to ensure your account does not go.'Over Quota'. A go.d rule of thumb is to move any messages that are more than a month old to your local folders group. For assistance transferring mail please read below. |
