"bounce notice"

[Guest]

My email bounces back yet I do not have many emails in my inbox, outbox or
deleted items. Also, my other email address works well. Also, how do I
increase my "quota".

Thank you.

Your quota is maintained by your ISP. Logon to your webbased mailaccount to

Thank you.

You haven't provided any real detail to go on....

1. When you say it bounces back, what exactly do you mean? When you send
mail? When people send mail to you? What's the exact text of the message? If
this is a POP account, are you sure you aren't set up to "leave a copy of
messages on server", which would eventually cause your mailbox on the server
to fill up & perhaps bounce inbound mail back to the sender?
2. Your other email address is an entirely separate account, I presume
3. Your mailbox quota is set by whomever runs your mail server - your ISP,
your corporate mail admin, whomever.

Then you aren't getting any bounces as claimed. To know of a bounce
means you have to get the bounce which means the NDR (non-delivery
report) message (aka bounce) shows up in your Inbox unless you used a
rule on bounces.

outbox or
deleted items.

Incoming e-mails go to your Inbox. You can use rules to move them from
there. Bounces are also incoming e-mails.

Also, my other email address works well.

Then you might look at how these accounts are differently configured.
Maybe what you really meant to ask is why you are getting bounces for
e-mails that you never sent. I can pretend to be you, spammers can
pretend to be you, anyone can pretend to be you. So when spammer or
trojanized PC running a mailer daemon pretends to be you by using your
e-mail address as the sender and they hit all those non-existent e-mail
addresses but on valid domains, those domains send back their NDRs to
the sender - and that is you because that is who the sender claimed they
were.

Also, how do I
increase my "quota".

You want US to guess WHO is YOUR e-mail provider? Talk to whomever is
your e-mail provider on how to get more "quota" (which could be daily or
monthly bandwidth, disk space, number of mail sessions per minute, how
many recipients per message, and other quotas). The most likely and
generic answer to increase your "quota" would be to pay to get more.
