I sent EOA to a bidder and got this message back-

This mailbox has exceeded their disk quota.

I believe this means they haven't checked their email in quite a while, am I correct?
If so, now what do I do?

hi rarriffle

yes, that's a common reason. also could be they got email bombed. and i *think* [someone correct me if i'm wrong] it could also be someone sent them a very large file.

I received at least 10 emails returned today from EOA's to our B&M weekly mailing. Somethings up on one of the servers. More of the hotmail's coming back. Although there was a news release on AT&T bowing out of a recent purchase. (Excuse me if I incorrectly list that). But had many problems today regarding email returns.

So, do I wait and try tomorrow? What if I keep getting this message after a few days?

rarriffle, most, if not all, ISP put a limit on how much mail you can store on their server. This limit is usually based on the amount of storage (expressed in KB or MB). If the amount of mail in the person's mailbox exceeds the limit set by the ISP, the mail server will automaticlly respond with the message you recieved.

Your best bet is to pull the contact information for the user and call them. They may not realize their mailbox is full.

I am having problems typing today.
