[X] Is this a backend issue? Use the lemmy-ui repo for UI / frontend issues.

Summary

If you receive an abusive DM there is no way to remove it from your inbox without admin help.

Steps to Reproduce

Ideally a person would be able to delete all private messages in their inbox, regardless of whether they created them or not.

But if this is not possible, blocking the abuse account should hide all DMs from them.

Reproduction:

Person B send messages to person A
Person A block person B
See person B messages still show up in inbox of person A
Observe person A also has no way to delete person B's messages. Their stuck it person A's inbox forever unless an admin intervenes.

I've added another feature request related to your bug report:

IMO, users should be able to block unsolicited PM or DM being received at all. This obviously also limits the problem of users not being able to delete a PM or DM.
