Quota
Each user or role account on the WiscMail Plus system is allocated a storage quota (starting at 1 GB) by the domain administrator. Individual quota increases are managed by the domain administrator.
The easiest way to monitor your quota is to use the WiscMail Plus web client; the bottom of the page will show you the number of messages in the Inbox as well as the total space you are using. The Folders page will show you a breakdown of how much space is used in each of your online folders. If you are approaching your quota limit, you must either reduce the amount of email you have stored or discuss increasing your quota with your domain administrator.
When you get near your quota, you will be sent automatically generated reminders to your WiscMail Plus account:
| Subject | Percent Usage | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Quota Notice - Your Email Account: [your email address] is at XX% or more of capacity - contents | 90% | Once every 48 hours |
| 95% | Once every 24 hours | |
| 100% + | Once every 24 hours |
If you are close to your quota limit, it is possible for a large message to put you over capacity. Once you are at or above your quota limit, messages will no longer be delivered to your account. WiscMail and WiscMail Plus senders will see warning messages when they attempt to send email to your account, and the email will not be accepted. External senders will also be unable to send email to your account, and they will most likely receive notifications from their email providers that the message transmission was unsuccessful. Once adequate space has been made available in your account, either by deleting mail or by purchasing additional quota space, new messages will begin to be delivered to your account.
While quota does not affect messages you send, if your mail client stores a copy of the sent message in an online folder and this does not fit in your quota, you may receive an error that your message cannot be sent because the copy cannot be created.
