Same as midlandi. I am very lazy to delete them, rather i let them fill up first. Another reason is that sometimes they contain useful information that others have passed on to you. So even if my inbox does become full i would delete the stored outgoing messages first to make free space.

I am also wait until its full. BTW PM storing capacity here is very less compare to DP

I am like most of the users that already replied : I clean my inbox just when it's full.

Unless I have to look back at that PM, I do delete them.

Every now and then go back and clear them all.

Like link exchanges etc, I write to an Access DB, until I do that, I keep the PM's and then delete them when I write them to the DB.

thanks
