i can delete them with 3.01 but only one at a time Sad


From what I see and understand of it you can remove all the recently sent emails from "all mail boxes" if you view the message and choose that option! If you just delete it that does not delete it from all mail boxes. However depending on how many users each message was sent to "Buddy List" each sent message may delete dozens of messages.

But those still leaves messages that are not included in the recently sent list and are instead received or stored in draft, sent, save or un-emptied trash folders.

In the example I used above I managed to delete all but 2 messages which still show in my forum dashboard and forum statistics, I presume those are the systems PM's it sends to new registered users for approved avatars etc.

But to remove all messages may require a 1 at a time approach the hard way which may require admin access to the Sql database! You know your forums makeup better than I.
