Putting a cap on number of emails sent

I wondered if there is a way to stop getting so many emails constantly. I
receive over 100 all the time. When I had other email servers, if the mail
reached it's limit, it would bounce it back to the sender saying......mailbox
is full. Can this be done with Windows Mail? I am running Windows 64 bit
Home Premium, Pavillion dv4, Entertainment PC. I am extremely illiterate
with Vista! Help!! :-)

Greetings Lynda,

I don't think you can really. The bounce in this case doesn't happen from the client, but
happens from the server. Given the huge size of Hotmail e-mail accounts (assuming you're
using Hotmail), this probably won't happen for a long, long time.

What exactly are these messages that are coming in? Depending on what they are, you may be
able to have Hotmail or Windows Mail sort through them and only show you the ones you really
care about (assuming that's the problem).
