Is there a way to get rid of old messages with one sweep? I have old messages that have been stacking up since the site opened. Every time I get up the energy to start deleting them, it just gets too time-consuming! I'd like to get rid of everything up to March of this year. Anyone?
Don't know of any way to delete them all at once, but then I don't know why it's necessary either. They are in chronological order (or you can list them that way) so it's not like you have to search for the latest ones. Just saying. At any rate, you should have plenty of time during the "lockdown" to get rid of them. Take care. Vern
Like you, I have found trying to delete old messages 10 at a time is terribly tedious, not to mention unnecessary. The little check box at the top left which is SUPPOSED to check all the messages on a page actually checks every one of them, BUT hitting the delete button will NOT work. I was told long ago that the only way to mass delete messages was ten at a time--no more. This is crazy.
I do agree with Vern, but having all those stacked up only costs Sol money in storage fees. The 'delete all on the page' function should be fixed.

Thanks, Sol. If I allow my web site to gather many unnecessary files, the fees will escalate rapidly. I go through and prune files once every month. I just took a look at my back messages. I had 24 pages just in the Received queue. It would be double that if you included the Sent queue. I can pare them down to just three pages, and maybe not even that much. That's a heck of a lot of storage saved.
