All of a sudden today I get a message saying inbox folder is full. I
have deleted over 1000 messages, compacted the folder, closed and
reopened mail, and restarted the computer. Still get the message inbox
full when I try to get mail. Any help appreciated in how to fix this.
L.D.
In addition to the mailbox cleanup and compact actions, check to see how
much hard drive space you've got available, wherever the profile is
stored. If your profile is in a non-default location, that hard drive
volume may be running out of space.
I checked hard drive space. More than half free. I can't find inbox
folder. Looked in Mozilla, Seamonkey and did a search for inbox
On a Windows machine, the default location would be
C:\Documents and Settings\YourNameHere\Application
Data\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\Mail\maildirectory
where YourNameHere is your name for purposes of the Windows OS, xxxxxxxx
is a random alphanumeric string, and maildirectory is normally your
ISP's POP mail server name (if you have several accounts within the
profile, this is the easiest way to tell them apart).
You should see a file called "Inbox," another file called "Inbox.msf,"
and a folder called "Inbox.sbd." The first one contains the actual
messages, the second is an index file, and the third would contain any
subdirectories of Inbox.
Under the conditions you describe, it seems likely that the error
message is erroneous (some program somewhere is confused). It wouldn't
be the first time a program reported insufficient disk space when the
problem was completely unrelated.
