TODAY/THIS WEEK
ENTERPRISE EMAIL SIZE LIMITATIONS, beginning Today:
Per Department of the Army CIO/G6 Policy dated Dec. 16,
2015, DISA will begin enforcement of the 4-gigabyte Mailbox Size limit
beginning today for SIPR and NIPR accounts. Once the 4GB limit is in place,
mailboxes that exceed the limit will lose functionality until the size is
reduced. As a result of exceeding the size limit, the following actions will
occur: you will receive a warning notice to reduce your mailbox when it
approaches the authorized limit and you will lose the ability to send email
when the mailbox reaches its authorized limit. If you fail to take action to
reduce the size of the mailbox, you will also lose the ability to receive email
and a non-delivery notification will be received by anyone attempting to send
to your mailbox. Links are available to assist you in managing the size of your
mailbox, available in the pdf at
