# Mailbox Full? How to Free Up Space in Microsoft 365, Gmail or Outlook

A full mailbox stops new mail from arriving. Free up space by removing large attachments and old mail, emptying deleted items, turning on archiving, or moving to a plan with more storage.

## Try this first

- Search for messages over 10 MB and save or delete the attachments
- Empty Deleted Items and Junk
- Turn on online archiving (Microsoft 365) or clean up Drive (Google)
- Check how much storage your plan includes

Common causes

- Large attachments piling up
- Years of mail with no archiving
- Google storage shared with Drive and Photos
- A plan with small mailboxes

## When it’s more than a quick fix

If several people keep hitting limits, or you must keep years of mail for legal reasons, you need archiving and retention set up properly.

## Questions

### Will archiving delete my email?

No. Archiving moves older mail to a separate archive you can still search.

### Why is my Gmail full when I barely use email?

Google storage is shared across Gmail, Drive and Photos, so large files elsewhere can fill it.

### Can you fix this remotely?

We clean up mailboxes, turn on archiving and retention, and right-size plans so you stop running out without overpaying.
