Do not use binhex, uuencode, zip or other formats for encoding your message, since the recipient may not be able to decode your message. Mail Management Read your e-mail regularly. The immediacy of e-mail is lost if it sits unnoticed in your mail box for long periods. Delete unwanted messages from your mail box to save space. Save your messages to a local disk to keep a record without cluttering up your mail box.
Attachments are particularly space consuming.
