No. On FimuroHost Cloud Hosting, the space used by your mailboxes is tracked separately from your website. Emails and attachments do not use up the disk space for your website files, and they do not count towards your database usage.

How storage is split

WhatCounted against
Website files (HTML, PHP, images, uploads, backups in your web folder)Your hosting plan's web disk space
MySQL databasesYour database allowance
Emails, attachments and mail foldersEach mailbox's own quota

This means a busy inbox won't slow down or fill up your website, and a large website won't stop you from receiving email.

Check how much space your mailboxes use

  1. Log in to your FimuroHost client area at https://app.fimurohost.com, go to Services, select your hosting plan and click Login to Control Panel / StackCP.
  2. Open Email Accounts. The space used by each mailbox is shown next to its address.

Tips

  • Every mailbox has its own storage limit. When a mailbox is full, new messages can't be delivered to it, so keep an eye on busy accounts.
  • Emptying Trash and clearing out old Sent items and spam is the quickest way to free up mailbox space.
  • Website backups or log files saved inside your web folder do count against web space, so clear old ones out regularly.
