G-mail issue...

[bartleby1]

I've been using g-mail for a while but just started receiving a message at the top of my mailbox screen in a red box that says: Your browser's cache is full and may interfere with your experience. Next to the message, there are two clickable links. One says "fix this" and one says "hide". I haven't clicked on either because I don't know what will happen.

Does this happen to anyone else? Should I click on the "fix this" link?

ETA: you can also try deleting everying in the trash folder.

Aaahh, OK. I'll try that. I was thinking more that it had to do with my browser, not my email account. But, maybe the 88,190 emails in my spam folder might be the problem, LOL! I'll try deleting them and see what happens.

Thanks so much, cglaura! That worked! Apparently they don't want you to save so much spam, lol!

Thanks for your help! It's been driving me crazy for a few days and I tried clearing my temp files, cookies, and everything else I could think of but never would have considered the spam folder.
