Keep getting mailbox full message
I have a POP server. I compact messages frequently. I keep my "inbox" mostly empty of received messages (perhaps 5 or 6 simple messages). When I start up Mozilla e mail and messages come into the in box (approximately 5 to 10 messages, not many KB's), almost daily I get the "mailbox is over the high water mark" statement. How can I open up the Mozilla limit switch to stop getting the "I'm full" statement.

I found this solution in an earlier forum. Give this a try.
OK, time to try the a more aggressive option. First, backup your Profile ( http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup )
Create a new sub-folder under Local Folders. Move all of the messages currently in your Inbox to that new subfolder.
Confirm that you have made the recommended backup of your Profile.
Close Thunderbird and navigate to your Profile folder. Delete both the file Inbox.msf and the file Inbox with no extension.
Restart Thunderbird and you should find a new, empty Inbox folder in place. Copy any messages you MUST have in your Inbox from the sub-folder created above to the Inbox. Compact the Inbox after those messages are copied in.
The "Real Fix" entry in this article -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Compacting_folders#Real_fix also describes this process.

When was the last time you compacted your folders? Deleting messages just makes them disappear from view and get marked for deletion. The disk space is not freed up until you compact the folder.
Compacted all folders 6/17/14.
Compacting did not fix the problem. Any other thoughts Airmail?
