deleting PMs

Post by JohnW »

Apparently my PM folder is full.
I don't know how to delete PMs from my folder, and cannot find any instructions.
Please tell me, fully and clearly, how to delete individual messages, and how to 'delete all'.
Thank you.

Alternatively you can save them in your "Saved messages" folder although this too will fill up in time. Your sent messages are deleted automatically one by one when you go over the folder limit.

. . . . and I recommend that you read this topic, or more specifically my post starting "I've made a discovery !"
viewtopic.php?f=14&t=117900

It should tell you how to set the parameters to auto-delete the oldest PMs to make room for the new ones.
. . . . which would be a better default . . . .
