Quota Change on Mail.usf.edu
Posted by Eric Pierce under Services , Support , mail.usf.edu[5] Comments
We’ve had some questions about the mail storage quota on mail.usf.edu accounts. The quota was raised to 100MB during the restore process because the mailbox restores caused multiple versions of a mailbox to exist on some accounts (i.e INBOX backed up on 12/13 and 12/20 were both recovered — one as INBOX, the other as INBOX-recover) so there were many people using more than their normal amount of storage. The quota was decreased to 75MB two weeks ago and has now been moved back to the original 50MB.
We’d love to be able to offer more storage, but that is most that we can offer to everyone at this time. If you have a class-related need for more storage, quota increases are available, but the request must be approved by the faculty member you are working with. To request an increase, have your professor send an email to usg@mailman.acomp.usf.edu (make sure they include your NetID in the message!)
