I'm about to run out of space in my Stickymail (well it's been ten years fer crysakes) So, I don't feel like going through them all right now; there's some I don't want to lose, so I'm thinking that either we could maybe get more space for them or maybe members could get more space for them or at least give us some facility to offload them. I am NOT deleting my messages from Tedster and you can't make me.

Any ideas?

Happened to me loads of times, I just download all of them to a dedicated email account ( set up just for "here" ) and then delete the less important ones from here.. But, I agree with you , it would make more sense to allow senior members more space as we by nature get more stickies building up..make more sense than badges..my 2cts..

Kept all of mine from Ted offline..even the ones where he tore me off a strip or wagged a finger ( many of them ) ..but we shared a lot of "non public" laughs and conversations too..keeping everything, always do..
Yes..I miss Ted too :(

I wouldn't mind a zip and download function. Would beat my cut and paste to offline docs (dumped into an Access database).

There are some options to e-mailing them to yourself.
Next to each message title is a checkbox, which can be selected manually, or, scroll to the bottom and you'll see "group options: select all select none", and to the right of that is a dropdown which probably has "Read unread messages" as the default.
From the dropdown you can see several options, including "email selected messages" and next to that, a "process button"
You can also choose to send them as individual messages as subsequent stages, and to delete those e-mailed.
Note, "select all" will only select all on that page, and not every message in your stickymail.
Try it with a single message, or a batch of messages.

The only thing that worked for me was total ruthlessness.

Go to the last (oldest) page of your Sticky list. Select All without looking at what you've selected. Delete. Repeat periodically.

Once something gets into my saved email, there's no hope. I have utility bills from 2008 in there.
