deleting private messages

I have clicked on the box to the right, i have looked and looked, can not find any way of then deleting the messages!

Check the boxes on the right of any message you want to delete then click on the Selected Messages tab at the bottom right. Select delete and then proceed.

 

thank you

did not realize that link on the bottom was a drop down. I was searching for a link that said "delete"
