List of sent messages on the laptop...

One question at a time please & once the person asking the question is happy with the answer they'll say "next question please" & anyone can chime in with the next question. (fun, fun, fun!)

List of sent messages on the laptop...

Post by Chuck »

My laptop currently has over 4 years worth of messages on this 'Sent List'!!

Is there a simple way to remove ALL of them?

Am using XP.

Highlight the top one, as in click on it - then hold down the shift key and hit the page down until all are selected then release the shift key and hit the delete key and they all should go to the deleted items folder

No Craig... from the list of all messages sent by my laptop.

Rob - yep, that did the trick, thanks.

Hi, all.

Chuck - about time you bought a MacBook. No viruses and you're buddies will think you're cool.

See you on the back roads,

Another option is to select one message, go up to EDIT/SELECT ALL and then if you're 100% sure they all need to go, press SHIFT/DELETE keys, confirm YES & they even bypass your deleted items box.

Shonky... I'm waiting for some kind person to leave a brand newie to me in their will... that's the only way I'll ever afford one. :lol:
