As of February 2005, all law school Lotus Notes mailbox databases will be limited to approximately 200mb per user.  For best performance and faster webmail loading, under 100mb is preferred.

If you find that your database is near 200MBs, please try these quick cleanup procedures:

Cleanup Tips: (Using either the full Notes Client or Webmail):

1. Open your email and click on Views, then All Documents on the left side menu of your screen.  Sort your email by size by clicking on "size" in the column header.

2. Identify large emails with attachments and delete or save them locally (these usually contain pictures, music or other large files...)

3. Then sort your mail by user name by clicking on "who" in the column header)

4. Identify groups of mail by username and delete unwanted mails (such as old law broadcasts, etc...)

5. If these procedures do not substantially reduce your mailbox size, archive everything that is older than 1 year to your local C: drive, and then burn to CD.  Burning to CD is relatively easy, as we now have burners on all PCs in the building.
