DELETE FROM pm WHERE pmid = <pmid>

wouldn't you also want to

DELETE FROM pmtext WHERE id = <pmid>

?

Not really.

When a PM is sent the following happens:
- A new row is inserted into the pmtext table with the text of the PM.
- A new row is inserted into the pm table for each receipant of the PM, and 1 for the sender of the PM

Removing the row from the PM table, will make the PM unreachable for this receipant/sender.

Stale pmtext rows (ie a pmtext with no row in the pm table anymore) are cleaned up on a regular basis by a scheduled task.

Thank you for this information, the both of you!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
