I saw that there are 60,000 private messages right now, if you get time, make sure you clean out your private messages, don't for get your sent folder, and don't forget to empty the trash folder.

thanks a ton!

Thanks for the reminder. I just cleaned mine out - 1,668 messages deleted. A small dent in the 60K, but it's a start. Please everyone - do some "spring cleaning" on your PM folders. Thank you.
All the best,
Glenn

I just dumped 14 pages of "inbox" PM's. all were from moderator duties in one way or another. Still got the others and the trash folder yet, so until "trash" is deleted, the count hasn't gone down yet, just changed which pocket they are sitting in.

Jim - there is an "empty trash" button on the lower right. Much easier than deleting from the inbox / sent box. I was the same - most from Moderator duties.
All the best,
Glenn

THERE, 63 pages of PM's dumped. 5 pages might have been personal messages. 63 X 10 = 630 messages. Not near as many as Glenn, but still WAY too many to have eating up bandwidth. Hopefully others will do likewise.
