ARCHIVED: About your Cyrus mail storage space

This content has been archived, and is no longer maintained by Indiana University. Information here may no longer be accurate, and links may no longer be available or reliable.

The default storage space on your Cyrus mail account is 500 MB. In IU Webmail, your usage is displayed just below the navigation bar. The first number is how much space you're using in megabytes (MB); the second number is your total available space; the third number, in parentheses, is the percentage of space you're using.

You can clean up your account by deleting stored messages; see ARCHIVED: In IU Webmail, how do I delete messages? If you use an email client such as Windows Live Mail, Mac OS X Mail, or Thunderbird to access your Cyrus mail account, you can delete messages from within that program; for instructions, consult the program's Help menu.

In particular, try to delete messages with large attachments. Also, check the sent-mail folders (which contain copies of all messages you have sent) and delete messages you don't need.
