Title: Inbox Size Limit?
Post by: marcotheminer on April 12, 2015, 12:01:03 PM
Is there a limit to the size of a member's inbox?

No. I have about 16,000 PMs in my inbox.

I wonder how many BadBear has? For some reason I can imagine him having more than that with all the people complaining to him about bans but maybe he deletes them. Nice to know we don't have to to free up space though.

No. I have about 16,000 PMs in my inbox.

And I thought my inbox needed cleaning.

BadBear has ~6,000 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=997377.msg10838523#msg10838523) PM's in his inbox. He probably has less because he has been an admin for a much shorter time period then theymos. If he has that many then it is probably safe to say that he doesn't delete them.

These huge inbox's make my ~4200 PM's look like child's play

Good point, but he has been a Global Mod for a considerable while longer and largely responsible for the bannings before he became an Admin.

I have near to 100 pages of PMs and I think other members will have more than this. I would like to download all PMs in a zip file and probably, clean it.

No. I have about 16,000 PMs in my inbox.

And I thought my inbox needed cleaning.

I move important PMs to new folder and remove it from inbox. After doing it, PMs in inbox decreased and now it is easy to view important and other PMs. You may want to do this.

How about add feature delete all at once ?
Just make sure that most PM are less important before getting deleted  :)

It is there. In Message Preferences, you can see "Prune Messages". Direct link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;sa=prune
