What happens when the PM area is 100% full? Do the oldest PM's get automatically deleted, or do we lose the ability to send PM's? Thanks.

My understanding is that the forum software prevents you from receiving any more private messages when your inbox is full. Nothing should be purged without your permission so as Russ says, it's a good idea to periodically clean house (select the ones you don't want and at bottom choose 'delete marked')

Got it, thanks Russ and Greg. While I'm cleaning house, can one of you please explain how to delete posts in the "Your Posts" area?

You can only delete posts you made if no one has replied to your post. If you want to delete one of your posts which has other replies, only a Mod or Admin can delete the post. Best bet for that kind of deletion is via Maverick or Copeg.
