I keep getting a message

'your storage is 98% full if you run out you won't be able to send or receive emails'

I've deleted loads of stuff, sent emails going back years, junk and deleted files folder but still getting it. Is it a coercive way to get me buy cloud storage I don't really want?

Bill Gates would say you do want it, if you want to keep more than your free 5Gb wink

Has it stored copies of photos/attachments - have you emptied the junk folder?

Think that Onedrive is also counted within the storage limit as well, worth checking if you have any large files stored on that.

Ahh yes, looks like loads of crap from my pad in there. Deleted now.

Thank you.
