Lotus Notes help please !!!

[skiprat]

Please save me from the fate of having to call the 'overseas IBM helpdesk'

I asked someone in our office to email me a very large file ( over 350meg ) which she did. Of course, this took me over my database quota limit so I just copied the attachments to a file and then deleted them from Notes.

How can I now hurry Notes to reset so I can send emails? I can receive them no probs but just can't send till there's enough space. I just keep getting the stupid message that I'm over my limit till I either archive or delete stuff.
I deleted them about 6 hours ago, but it still says I'm over my quota and can't send until I'm under my limit? It's almost 8pm here and I can't call my office for help.

Do I really have to wait till our local server and perhaps our international 'Pass Through' servers have reset or is there something I can do.
I've 'Replicated' a dozen times already. :frown:

TIA

Have you emptied your 'Deleted Items'?

I haven't used notes for quite some time, so I'm a little rusty on the interface. Is there a deleted messages folder? If so you may be able to go into it and delete it immediately.

Too cool !!!! That worked!!!

Many many thanks to Andrew and Kathryn ( especially to Kathryn as it was her first post !! ) If you both email me your addresses, I'll send you a little 'thank you' as a token of my appreciation!!!

Your replies allow me to send in my business expenses and timesheets that would have seriously limited my Christmas budget as our close date is tomorrow!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
