Hi.
I don't have a button to delete messages while inside of a message.
I also can't delete messages by selecting them with the checkbox and selecting "delete". The delete option doesn't exist.
So I have no way to delete any messages, causing my inbox to reach capacity.

Pics attached.

Private Messages -> Rules, folders & settings -> If folder is full -> Delete oldest message.

Thanks for that info. Fortunately, I already have "Delete oldest message" already selected, so I guess I won't miss any new messages that come in.
I am wondering, though, why the delete button/option went away, to be able to delete selected messages.
Was that intentional?
Thanks.
