About This Feature

Overview

WPS Storage Space is a mailbox capacity management feature in WPS Email for Mac. It helps you check current mailbox usage and free up available space by clearing removable content.

Its main capabilities include:

  • View the total storage limit and current usage before cleanup.
  • Review storage usage by location so you can identify where space is being used.

Capability SummaryOn Mac, you can open Storage Space in mailbox settings to view the total storage limit, review usage by location, and clear Drafts, Deleted, or Spam content.Outlook provides a mailbox storage page where users can review folder usage and permanently delete content by time range to free space.Gmail storage is shared with the Google account and can be recovered by emptying Trash and Spam or deleting large emails.Notion Mail has announced shutdown timelines, and its current official guidance focuses on exporting drafts, scheduled emails, snippets, and other Notion Mail-only data instead of ongoing mailbox storage management.Adobe Acrobat provides cloud file and folder management for Adobe cloud storage, but it is not a mailbox storage management workflow.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: WPS keeps mailbox usage review and cleanup entry points together in mailbox settings for routine email storage maintenance.Compared with WPS: Outlook focuses more on mailbox folder cleanup and retention-based deletion options.Compared with WPS: Gmail storage is shared across Drive, Gmail, and Photos rather than shown as a dedicated mailbox quota view.Compared with WPS: Notion Mail currently centers on migration and export guidance, so mailbox storage management continuity is limited.Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on cloud file management rather than mailbox cleanup.

Overall Conclusion

If your priority is to check mailbox usage directly and clear removable content quickly, WPS offers a more focused entry point. Microsoft and Google also provide storage management, but they are oriented toward enterprise mailbox controls or shared account storage, while Notion and Adobe do not match the same mailbox cleanup scenario.
