Unable to write email to mailbox: Error Message:

Postby edwardryan » Thu 28 Dec, 2006 10:38 pm

Hi,
I've just joined SillyDog and have read some posting regarding my problem but they all seem to be geared towards Windows XP and not Mac OSX.
I am running Mac OSX 10.3.5 using Netscape and it's mail program.
I have used it for years going back to Mac OS 7

I have suddenly been getting the error message:
Unable to write email to mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox.

I have done all the usual, compact mail folders, empty trash, deleted messages other than crucial work emails, restarted computer, repair permissions and even got a software program called Cocktail and ran it.
I got the mail to write for a short while and then it reverted back to the error message.

Any Mac help out there? I saw some windows advice fixes on Sillydog forums under Unable to write email..... and some things look close but hey I use a Mac.
Couldn't find any postings on Mac Forum using the above search.
Don't want to have to risk losing my address book and all my work email messages.
Please help.
Thanks,
Ed

Did you use this link?
I know that it is not for Macs, and that you have done the preliminary steps. You may need to Create a new profile (sublionk in the link which I gave above.)
