When you set a quota limit for storage, you can set two
values: a warning value and a maximum value. When a site collection passes the
warning limit, an e-mail message is sent to the site administrator and owner
notifying them that their site collection is near to their storage quota.
E-mail messages are sent daily until the storage level drops below the warning
level. When a site collection meets the maximum limit, another e-mail message
is sent to the owner and administrator, and no new content can be added to the
site collection.
