Received the following error when sending mail from Yahoo to my office email account. There are no space issues with this server.
Remote host said: 552 Requested mail action aborted: exceeded storage allocation

Does someone know of a solution for this? I have little experience with email troubleshooting.

Appreciate your help!

That message usually means that your sending an e-mail messsage with an attachment that exceeds the limit of your office mail box.

If your using an exchange server there is a limit that needs to be increased.

Yahoo I believe can send a 3 MB attachment.

Your office mail box may only be able to accept an attachment of 2 mb.
