There is a size limit of approximately 7GB on your Google Mail account. This message is letting you know that the limit has been reached. To correct this problem, you will need to delete messages from your mailbox. After the messages are deleted, you will continue to receive mail. Please note, after deleting messages, they will still show up in your mailbox with a “” beside them until you do a purge. To purge your email messages either check the messages you want to purge and then click the “Purge” button or click the “Purge All” button and all of your deleted messages will be purged.
