# Overview

> Your workspace at a glance: monthly usage, account status, retention, and recent emails.

The Overview is the first screen you see after signing in. It answers three questions at a glance: how much have I used, what's my account status, and what just came in.

## Stat cards

**EMAILS THIS MONTH**
Your usage against the plan limit — 100 emails on Starter, 1,000 on Pro — shown as a progress bar that resets monthly. When you get close to the limit, the card reminds you: *Overage is a hard stop — upgrade for more volume.* Emails that arrive after the limit is reached are marked `QUOTA BLOCKED`; nothing is metered or billed beyond the plan.

**STATUS**
Your workspace and subscription state. During the 14-day trial it shows the trial with a note that Pro limits apply until day 14. After checkout it shows your active plan; if a payment fails, it shows a payment-failed banner and processing is paused until you update your payment details.

**RETENTION**
How long raw emails and attachments are kept before automatic deletion — 14 days on Starter, 30 days on Pro and Custom. Extracted results and delivery logs are kept regardless.

## Recent emails

The **RECENT EMAILS** list shows the latest emails across all your mailboxes with their status chips. Click any row to open it in the [Inbox](/dashboard/inbox).

## New mailbox

Use the **New mailbox** button to create a mailbox — BounceBox generates an inbound address for you and you can edit the local part right away. See [Mailboxes](/dashboard/mailboxes) for the full walkthrough.
