Hi Nancy,

When you receive the prompt that an e-mail is larger than the maximum size, you 
can still download it.  The prompt says, "This email is larger than the maximum 
size allowed? Option?", and at this point, you press ENTER, and it will resume 
downloading.  I've left my setting at the default of 50 kilobytes, and when I'm 
told an e-mail is larger than this, I just press ENTER, and the e-mail 
continues to download.  There are a number of other options at this prompt, 
such as finding out information about the sender/subject/e-mail size, 
downloading the first ten lines and then either leaving a copy on the server or 
deleting the e-mail, and changing the maximum size for all subsequent e-mails.  
As far as the "Not enough disk space" message, if you are unable to open a file 
or e-mail because you get this message, doing a hard reset (reset with [dots 
4-5-6] [J-K-L keys] held down) will fix this problem.  When you open such 
things as files and e-mails on the BN, no matter where they actually are, this 
takes space on the KeySoft System Disk, which is one of the drives of the 
BrailleNote.  Eventually, this space may get "cluttered", and a hard reset 
frees up that space again.  Finally, your KeyMail database is stored on the 
Flash Disk, the internal drive of the BrailleNote which the user uses to store 
items in, so a Microdrive won't solve your problem, but a hard reset will take 
care of the "Not enough disk space" message whenever it comes up, and you can 
still download e-mails which are larger than the size you have set in the 
Receive Options of the KeyMail Set-Up Menu.
