    Hello

    You can check your email storage space via the following link:

    https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/options/accounts-category/storage

    A full OneDrive storage space can also affect your ability to receive emails. Therefore, you should also check your OneDrive storage space.

    If you're receiving a message stating that your storage is full but you believe it is not, you may want to verify the actual storage quotas of your mailbox. You can do this by running the following PowerShell cmdlet:

    Get-Mailbox ******@contoso.com | fl ProhibitSendReceiveQuota,RecoverableItemsQuota
    

    This will show you the quotas set for your mailbox. Additionally, check the status of your mailbox quota with:

    Get-MailboxStatistics ******@contoso.com | fl StorageLimitStatus,TotalItemSize,TotalDeletedItemSize
    

    If the TotalItemSize exceeds the ProhibitSendReceiveQuota, or if the TotalDeletedItemSize exceeds the RecoverableItemsQuota, you will need to either delete items from your mailbox or enable an archive if it is not already enabled.

    Also, ensure that there are no rules in your email settings that might be diverting your emails to other folders, such as an RSS feed or Junk folder.
