A question I can actually answer!
Buddy-First of all, there is a drop-down box that says something like "Show Messages From" and you can select how long messages are visible. If it is set to, say, 10 days, messages that are over ten days old will not show up but are still saved in your PM box. They just aren't visible. Click the drop-down box and select "From Beginning" (or something like that) and all of your messages will show up. Then just delete the ones you don't want to save anymore. Next step is to delete all the copies of sent messages by clicking the other drop-down box to take you to your "Sent Messages" screen. I think it is on the upper left of your PM box screen. Once you get to the sent messages folder, you will also want to click the "Show Messages" box and change it to "From Beginning". Then delete those messages that you no longer want to save. Lastly, whenever you send a message, there are three check boxes at the bottom of the message: One to automatically parse url's, one to show your signature line, and one to save a copy of that message you are sending. All three of these are default set to "Checked". Just uncheck the "Save Copy" box if you don't need to save a copy of that message. Otherwise it will just clutter up your PM box.
Good luck. :)

Little does he know that right after he tries my advice, his computer will lock up, shut down, then burst into flames! Better get that fire extinguisher ready, Buddy!:scream:

I'm afraid I'm out of the Reno trip. I really tried but I just can't make it happen this year. I'm trying to get my finances in order and I will make some definite plans for next year.
