    Done. Thanks for the reminder. Is there a way to set them up so they delete themselves after 30 days?

    Will do, boss! I don't get to it as often as I should, and as Tman said, they tend to accumulate pretty fast! I must add: PMs are great, as they reduce unnecessary or irrellevant posts on main threads!

    Gotta leave town for a while today, but I'll redouble efforts -- especially now that you mentioned it'll help EVERYBODY. THANKS for the heads-up!

    I have 10 messages but the message box says i have over 450 stored, does this include 'sent' messages? I went looking for them but couldn't find them?

    yes it includes sent messages. when you go to your Private Message screen you'll see a red, yellow, and green strip towards the top. right under that you'll see "jump to folder" and a menu that says "Inbox (10 Messages)", click that and it'll drop down and you can choose sent.

    Done down to one that I need to keep to remember the name.
     
  10. I had a bunch...cleared out about 2/3...more later as time allows...thanks Ryan for all you do
     
  11. Guilty as charged,,having had 983 PM's I am one of the people who saved most both incoming and sent.

    Reasons were all over the place from buying or selling a part,friendship with some members that has passed away or just information.

    Today,I quit hording, I deleted them all,,,FRESH START!

    Do I win a prize for deleting the most? :D HRP
     
  12. Damn I found a private message left over from the ice age. :D

    Done buddy. I'm down to just things pending.

    Only alliance members are allowed 1,000. We both know he's mistaken regarding his HAMB PM box.
