No way to clear out private message inbox

Just wondering if anyone else on this chat page has the same issue I'm seeing. I've been trying to remove older private messages so I can release new messages on hold. But when I try to delete the private message I get an error saying that the form was invalid. Has anyone had this issue? It's pretty annoying since I can't read new private messages until the old ones are cleared out.

If I try to do multiple at once (from my inbox), I get the same message. But if I open a message up and hit the "X" in the top right corner, it does delete the message without an issue.

Yeah, one at a time is the only way I've been able to delete messages for quite some time.

I've run into the same problem again, except I can't delete messages one at a time. If someone wants to contact me, I'll put up my email in cryptic form.

Jay,

If you try the method Jason described it should work. I just tried it again and it worked.

This worked for me as well this morning.

I tried the "X" method too and that works. I swear I used to be able to delete one at a time from the main menu (or "store" one), but at least I can delete. I read through of the old messages before deleting them, and they're still interesting.

Thanks,

Jay
