When you get a chance, can you let me know if there’s a solution for this? Even a database query I can run to just delete the old message inboxes containing no messages for those who have them?

I felt hopeful that we could put this baby to rest until messaging gets some love, now that we have this:

>
> This has been merged. We now have two separate settings: Thanks again @nbianca! clap
