When your inbox goes over 10MB, you'll receive a message from an automated monitor advising you that you need to delete mail. If, after two weeks, you have not deleted enough mail, the system will automatically delete mail from your inbox until you are under quota. Please take seriously the messages from this monitor. GSB staff will not restore truncated mail. It's pretty easy to accumulate a large amount of mail.
