We upgraded to Windows 2000 and Outlook 2000 SR-1. Since
then, every time I try to send email, I receive an error
message that my acount it full. Each morning when I log
in, I get a mail message stating that my email has 28,000
bytes and I need to move some things to a pst folder.

I checked the hard drive and I can't find a folder with
that much information. My personal (.pst) folder only has
about 6K of info in it. I can get mail but not send. Out
IT people have been unable to figure this out. Can anyone
help?
 
I checked the Folder Size for all of the folders under
Outlook Today and the Total Size (Fld+SubFld): is 27900K.
However, in the detail below, it does not add up to
27900K. Could this be some kind of registry issue?
 
Hi Rob,
I take it that you are on an exchange server.
Try the following:
1: Check your sent items - I think that you probably have a few mails there. Delete those that aren't necessary and save those that are.
2: Empty your deleted items
3: Organise your inbox:
Create pst folders - (If you receive a lot of mails from the same person or about the same subject create a personal folder
Add rules - mails can be automatically forwarded to these folders. This will really make your inbox more manageable.
If you still need help to do this let me know.
kind regards,
Chris
 
I've created personal folders and rules for incoming
mail. I've also deleted mail from Sent, Deleted Items,
Etc. I think the problem is somewhere else...I checked
the Folder Size for all of the folders under
Outlook Today and the Total Size (Fld+SubFld): is 27900K.
However, in the detail below, it does not add up to
27900K. Could this be some kind of registry issue?

No, it's not a registry issue. Outlook is asking the Exchange server for
the size and simply reporting what it's told.
Speak with your Exchange administrator.
