Iphone 11 cannot send mail your mailbox is full

Frustrating!

The "Your mailbox is full" error on an iPhone 11 (or any iPhone for that matter) can be caused by a few reasons. Here are some troubleshooting steps to help you resolve the issue:

  1. Check your email account settings: Ensure that your email account settings are correct and up-to-date. Go to Settings > [your email account] > Account > Advanced > Mailbox Behaviors. Make sure that the "Maximum Mailbox Size" is set to a reasonable value (e.g., 100 MB).
  2. Delete old emails: If you have a large number of old emails in your inbox, try deleting some of them to free up space. You can do this by going to your email account on the web, selecting the emails you want to delete, and clicking the "Delete" button.
  3. Empty the Trash: Make sure that your Trash folder is empty. Sometimes, emails can get stuck in the Trash folder and count towards your mailbox size. Go to your email account on the web, select the Trash folder, and click the "Empty" button.
  4. Check for large attachments: If you have emails with large attachments, try deleting or reducing the size of those attachments. Large attachments can quickly fill up your mailbox.
  5. Check for spam or junk emails: If you have a lot of spam or junk emails in your inbox, try deleting them or marking them as spam. This can help free up space in your mailbox.
  6. Check your email account's storage limit: If you're using a free email account, it may have a limited storage capacity. Check your email provider's website to see if you're approaching or have exceeded your storage limit.
  7. Reset your email account: If none of the above steps work, try resetting your email account on your iPhone. Go to Settings > [your email account] > Account > Reset. This will reset your email account settings to their default values.
  8. Contact your email provider: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it's possible that there's a problem with your email provider's servers or your account. Contact your email provider's support team for further assistance.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the "Your mailbox is full" error on your iPhone 11 and start sending emails again.
