If the hosting package you have booked has exceeded its storage capacity, you will no longer be able to receive e-mails.
This can be fixed by upgrading your current hosting package to a larger one.
You can find the offers in your customer area in the left side menu under Hosting and the tab Switch Package.
Or directly at: https://www.inwx.de/en/hosting
Of course, you could also delete e-mails that you no longer need.
If deletion is not possible or you receive an error message that there is not enough space for this action, the e-mail client only moves the emails to the trash and does not delete them.
You can manually empty the trash to make room, as this action will delete the emails directly on the server.
If the recycle bin is already empty or you do not want to delete the recycle bin, you can make a corresponding setting in your e-mail client.
The emails to be deleted are then deleted immediately and no longer moved to the trash.
