How can I delete, remove or erase "sent" messages?

OpenStudy (tanya123):

@thomaster

OpenStudy (jlg030597):

You go to veiw all messages and then you can delete your sent or received messages.

thomaster (thomaster):

You cannot delete sent messages, only received messages. It's like in an email inbox. You can delete the received emails, but you cannot delete emails that already have been send. Only the recipient can remove those.

OpenStudy (jlg030597):

Not true in Gmail you can delete both sent and received messages

thomaster (thomaster):

Yes but that won't delete the message that has been send. only the copy that has been saved in the send email folder. That's not possible on OS.

OpenStudy (tanya123):

What do you mean by "Only the recipient can remove those." so is there a way to remove?

OpenStudy (tanya123):

mathslover (mathslover):

@tanya123 : Thomaster meant to say that only the receiver of the message can remove it but only from his messages collection. A sender or normal user can not remove the sent message but only the receiver can remove it. Good Luck!

OpenStudy (tanya123):

ok makes sense, I have one more question... Can't the Ambassadors remove them when they can see pm's ?

mathslover (mathslover):

Ambassadors can neither remove them nor see them as a third person. Suppose, you sent a message to Thomaster, then I as an ambassador, can NOT see your PM and also, can not delete it.

OpenStudy (tanya123):

All right then! I guess there is no way to remove them... Well Thank you @thomaster @jlg030597 & @mathslover =') Really Appreciated your help

mathslover (mathslover):

Only admins can remove them but only if there is something against OS code of Conduct
