[Guest guest]

Sharon, if we delete our own messages will it only delete them from our end

(what we download) or is it taken off the main site?

courage, when you go to the main site to delete, it does appear to delete teh

messages from there. i cleaned out most of my messages from june 2004, i had

alot around the 4th and 5th of june, would you loook up and see if there are

alot of messages from me, if there are not then it takes it from the site, if

there are, well then it didt work like i hoped. i feel like it took it off te

site, because 1) i couldnt do any messages otehr than my own, and 2) when i

clicked on delete, it always said, are you sure you want to permanently delete

message # , and i clicked ok, and then when i went back to message list, that

message was gone. and when i looked it up a few mintues ago, they were still

gone good luck, sharon m

Thanks Sharon,

I thought I read somewhere that you could delete your own messages. I

did go in and start to delete some older messages. Appreciate all the

help there is to clean it up and give us more room.

Thanks again.
