Is there any way to delete mass private messages from the db?

Thx.

If they've been sent then there's not a direct way of doing it as it doesn't store whether they were sent via the mass mail system.

The only thing you could do is run a query that searches for the content of your message.

DELETE FROM `mybb_privatemessages` WHERE `message` LIKE '%part of the message here%';

Then that'll delete any messages from the database that contain that text.

Cool! I deleted 120MB with this.
Thank you Matt!
