"Inbox Full" emails
 

My inbox is perpetually full, and every once in a while, I get an email saying that someone tried to message me but my inbox was full.

Obviously, I have no idea what they tried to say. So I have to delete one message and PM that person to ask them what they tried to say.

The email I get only says the following:

Can that email be updated to include a copy of the message that couldn't be sent, please?

The only problem is it would be treating the symptom, not the disease. The limit is 100 messages and by sending the PM via email you would never need to clean out your inbox.

Why not make it a habit to clean out your PMs?

Do you really need to save your PMs long term? If so you can download them to your computer with the choice of different formats.

The better suggestion would be to increase the quota if you think you have a good use case but I suspect the inbox would ultimately still get filled up...

So forcing me to "clean out my inbox" is the entire point? And any suggestion that gets in the way of, or eliminates the need for, that, is going to be rejected?

Don't expect me to ever be accessible by private message ever again.

I don’t know for sure, but it appears that the limit is for the inbox only.
Create another folder and move your read messages there, leaving your inbox empty.

Maybe someone who knows will confirm...

Edit: Hmmm I added a folder named Saved and my limit increased to 250...was 100 before thatI didn’t move anything yet. (I only have 40 messages). Add a folder and see what happens.

Thanks for the feedback. Forced pruning was never a consideration. While the feature you'd like isn't possible with the current framework, I've updated the limit to 250 and we'll revisit functionality in the near future.

To confirm: it's `Maximum Stored Messages`

Aha. Nothing to do with what I did...Funny coincidence...

Thank you Jeremy!

Thanks
