My mailbox is full, yet I see no option to delete past, previous and old conversations.

As @sdsnybny said, "delete" has been replaced by "leave conversation" (upper right corner).

When you click it, you will get another pop up with 2 choices:

  • Accept Future Messages: It will delete the conversation from your inbox. If the user you were in conversation with responds again, you will get the response and the entire conversation will return to your inbox (pending having enough space)
  • Ignore Future Messages: Use this choice at your own risk!!! Permanently deletes the conversation from your inbox. If the user you were in conversation with responds again, you will NOT receive the response. (This choice is more for leaving group conversations that you no longer want to be a part of.)
Hope that helps

sdsnybny and Mr. Deranged...thanks a million! Worked like a charm. I don't know why I couldn't figure that out.

Someone tried to send me a message but my inbox was full, so I left a bunch of conversations. However, it still says my inbox is full when I try to message the guy. This does not help when I'm trying to sell stuff.

@Quixtar you lost your "Active Member" status Saturday morning. Standard members get space for 100 messages while "Active Members" get space for 250. Currently, until you are an "Active Member" again or become an arachnosupporter, you will only have space for 100 messages.

I would very much like to be able to delete messages individually rather than have to leave whole conversations or, even better, have a way to archive particular messages that I want to keep before leaving a conversation.

Hi @ErinM31 ,

Unfortunately, the way this software works, single messages can not be deleted.
