Private Messages Purge

I'm out with the feather duster again and noticed that my very own private messages thing was full (and probably rejecting incoming message - I dunno)

In the interests of resource conservation, could you all please examine your messages, archive the important ones and delete the unimportant ones.

You will notice that you have 4 boxes:

1. Inbox
2. Sentbox
3. Outbox
4. Savebox

Any messages in Outbox haven't been read by the recipient yet so you might want to be careful about just deleting them.

Thanks for your help in clearing out some cobwebs :) |V

I'm going to be implementing a large-scale purge of all private messages in order to reduce the database size. I don't know when but I will announce it at least a week in advance.

I don't have the ability to purge only selected users - or only selected messages. It's more a blunderbus (sp?) approach :)

If we have a decent enough cleanout though, I may be able to refrain from the purge so it would be great if you could examine your private messages and delete as much as you can.
