If the server is storing up spam, and then crediting it to my email
account, they are hiding that spam from me completely. It shows up
nowhere.
The server stats... not my webmail acount, the ones on the back end for
administrative use, say I am using up 41 MB of a Quota of 250 MB.
And, as I said, other emails have continued to reach me the whole time.
But I put in a "ticket", and they said they can't find a problem, and my
email account appears to work normally, but if I let them know what
email address my friend is sending from and as close as possible the
time one of the bounced messages went out, they will check the logs and
see if they can find out what's happening.
