In addition to the good advice given already, you can transfer messages you
want to keep onto your local computer. This serves two good purposes.
First off, it marks the network server version of the email as to be
deleted, which can free up space, and it also makes the copy locally
available to you even if the network is down.
Another fix you may need is to purge your deleted messages. Outlook marks
messages for deletion, but doesn't actively purge them from the server. To
purge them you must open the Edit menu and hit enter on "purge deleted
messages". I do this once a day. It only takes a millisecond and frees up
tons of space from spam and unwanted messages.

Hello Claude,
I use Microsoft Outlook with Microsoft Office 2003. I am on a network and
have a message limit. It is actually a space limit, because messages with
images take up more of my limited space than text messages. I know of only
two ways of making your situation better. One is to talk with the network
administrator and ask for more space. The other is to keep cleaning out your
various mailboxes. I have two different accounts, so that means cleaning two
inboxes, two junk mailboxes, two sent mailboxes, etc. One problem I have is
that Outlook doesn't let me know what percentage of my space has been used.
Also, my junk mail is not delivered to Outlook. So I have to take time
weekly to go to the original at ...temple.edu and see how full my box is and
also to check and clean out my junk mail.

I am really getting frustrated with Outlook apparently it has some kind of
maximum message limit if one is on a network, And it blocks traffic if I
neglect to empty the delete file or other files. Anyone have any
suggestions on how to correct this issue?
