IMAP - Quota ?

[Robert Meyer]

Well, I can think of a couple of things.  It's possible that their Email store
got hammered.  This is kinda unlikely because they probably have backups. 
Check again today to see if it comes back.

I have whacked my whole inbox on one occasion with Mozilla mail.  I was
clearing the spam folders and I got into the <ctrl>A-<del>-<alt>F-X sequence. 
Wiped the whole inbox.  This didn't affect any of the other folders however.

If you've been using Windows with the netscape.net account, you could have had
your machine hijacked and become a spam source.  If that happened, they would
probably whack the account and not reenable it.

That's all I can think of right now...

Cheers!
