It is suggested you Log Into the Web Portal of your e-mail Provider


Check if there are Limits as to how much Storage they allow


The wording in your error message " Mailbox is full / Blocks limit exceeded " is a tip off that the e-mail provider does appear have limits .


If I may share.


My Aunt ran into a similar issue.


She Kept every e-mail and every large file attachment e-mail stored on the e-mail servers


After some time she could neither send nor receive e-mails


When I was sending her an e-mail, her server would bounce back my one line of text onl, saying could not delivery message


She eventual had to delete a ton of Old E-mails before it would work
