Help Phone storage is FULL. (not)

My phone is telling me that my storage is FULL. There is NO way that is possible. When I go to settings, it says I have 6.43GB free. How the hell do I fix this?

I had this issue and called VZW support who then called HTC support. Their "fix" was to have me do a hard-reset. Granted, the "storage space low" error message went away - but it doesn't actually fix the underlying issue.

Others on the forum have speculated that the error is caused by a bug in the default mail application.

I think I have solved on my HTC incredible, which has 8GB, says 7GB remaining, but I get Phone Storage Full errors, and I cannot download apps nor MMS and other problems

I had my Exchange email set to download all my email and calendar, and I think the storage was actually full and misreporting it had space. I set the email sync to get only 30 days, waited for a long re-sync (which effectively deleted many emails), and now all failing apps are working again and phone storage full errors gone.
