How to Prune Old Messages

Many of you cannot receive PMs as all of your PMs migrated to the new board. All being any you have ever had as a member.

This image will show you how to prune them so that you can receive messages again.

it may be that I will have to completely empty the PM table on the database to get everyone back to 0

Hi Mandos


Can you prune your private messages?  I'd like to talk to you about WCI stuff, If that's OK with you.

Mine is not prunable.  ie, I have no messages (0), but my mailbox is still full.  I don't use PMs often, so I've never bothered to complain.  You should just email me at
