PM inbox - Help!
Really in trouble - I cannot delete PMs anymore.
When I select them and press button "Delete" they go to the Stored folder instead.
When I try to select and delete them there, no effect.
And my pm box is jammed up to 997 now. Help!

You're right, Harriet. Same with me.

Re: PM inbox - Help!
I had only noticed that the Delete button had wandered from left to right. And if I try to delete a message it says Message has been moved instead of Has been deleted.

Not in the Stored Folder, right 
When I check the two buttons in the Inbox (Delete and Move to Stored), both of move to Stored.

683. I always diligently clear my Sent box which saves a lot of space. Nevertheless I'd like it to be fixed. I'm glad I know how to contact you.

Same problem for me. Even tried the route of selecting all but they just got moved to stored.

Re: PM inbox - Help!
Thanks for flagging this up. I can't believe you guys send so many PMs!
There's no option for changing it in the Admin section, so I've e-mailed Boardhost Support and am waiting to hear back. They normally reply within 24 hours.

Thanks a lot so far, let's see what happens

Re: PM inbox - Help!
Oh dear-- I've got loads of PMs to delete but they all went to the stored folder. All I did was press the delete button. I've not noticed that till today and it is still happening. Any news, Boss?
