    Click on the little square to the left of the message and then choose delete in the dropdown menu that pops up.

    .Go to the PM (conversation) that you want to delete. Up near the top you'll have the option to "leave" this conversation. You can then chose to either continue to get PMs from that person or not.

    Hey D,
    Here are some simple steps that I used to delete some old conversations from my list of PMs. It was simple and they disappeared when I followed the steps.
    1. upload_2022-1-24_12-23-28.png
    I selected Altered Coupes as a delete. I saved the conversation to a Word Do***ent.
    2. upload_2022-1-24_12-24-34.png
    After selecting the blue tab, this screen pops up. Don't check Select All as it checks all conversations ready for deleting... warning!!!
    3. upload_2022-1-24_12-26-7.png
    This pops up and now, select leave conversations only after you have selected the only conversation you want deleted. It is permanent. So, just for later use I have copied all conversations onto a Word Do***ent and it takes up very little space on any hard drive.
    4.

    This is the last step and to fully eliminate the not wanted conversation, hit the blue leave conversation tab. It is now, GONE...

  11. Hey Dino,
    Not to alter this thread but I worked in a machine shop, early 70's,
    during college days. I machined parts that punched those cards.
    While in college I "punched" out programs on those card punch machines.
    Then had to debug the program results by reading "green bar"
    geared program sheets, then re-punch and re-run the programs!
    I was one of those guys with boxes of punch cards.
    They were the programs! The IBM 360-30 sat in a temp/humidity
    controlled computer center. You had to submit your cards
    through a special window, then wait for days, (turn-around time)
    to get back the program results!
