I have to think it could well be related. Many individual spams are getting awfully big. AOL's inbox space might not be big enough to hold messages for the specified length of time. If she's leaving messages on server for 30 days, try cutting back to 10 or 14. Check with AOL if inbox size can be increased. If none are being left on server yet AOL inbox is full, something must be wrong either with SM or AOL. I have two POP mail accounts, one set to leave on server 11 days, the other 25. The one set to 11 is using about 25MB. The one set to 25 is only using about 5MB, but I just reduced it from around 37MB by deleting all emails 3 digits large, which were running e.g. 159, 164, 241 & 316 KB. How often does she compact folders? I do it daily. If she never does, maybe doing it is overdue, especially if triple digit spams have been routinely reaching it. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Whatever else you get, get wisdom."
