Below are some common errors that you may receive from reaching your inode limit. If you receive one of these errors, try deleting some files and emails from your account that are no longer needed. Your goal is to get below the 200,000 limit with room to spare.

If emails sent to your account bounce back to the sender with the following message...
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

Again, if you receive one of these errors, you may need to delete some files and emails from your account that are no longer needed. Your goal is to get below the 200,000 limit with room to spare.
On some servers the total file number can be viewed in the cPanel statistics section.
