How to modify your mailbox quota
To ensure that you don’t experience any issues with your mailbox, there are multiple ways for you to adjust your mailbox quota.
One way to do this is by removing mailboxes from your account that you no longer need. Alternatively, you can increase your quota by purchasing additional mailboxes for your account. From there, you can either create a new mailbox or upgrade an existing mailbox.
This guide will detail exactly how you can perform these actions.
Please note: you have 14 days from when you received your ‘Mailbox over quota’ email to amend your mailbox quota.
Remove mailboxes from your account
Please note: deleting a mailbox will also delete all the stored emails and other data associated with the account. This is an irreversible operation, so make sure that you have retrieved everything you need off the account, and that you are sure you want to delete the mailbox.
Start by logging in to your 123 Reg control panel. From there, scroll down to the Email section and select Manage email.
Select the Options menu for the mailbox that you wish to delete and select Delete Address from the drop-down menu that appears.
You can also delete multiple addresses by selecting the tick boxes for the mailboxes you wish to delete. From there, click the ‘Delete selected’ box above.
In both cases, a pop-up window will appear asking if you wish to delete this address. Click Save & Exit to confirm this.
