We are suddenly getting an error on the forum:

WARNING: The admin postbag contains 214 posts which require removal

I looked through and could not figure out what this is or where to look for it behind the scenes. Please advise.

P.S. The Topic RSS feed button is not working for this topic.

Hey Jean,

Take a look at the admin bar at the very top of the forum. Basically the admin bar plugin marks all posts for an admin to review for either moderation or just as an alert that a post has been made.

Through the admin bar you can clear all these posts individually or all in one action. If you are not making use of the admin bar then it would probably be best to disable it, as too many posts in the postbag can potentially slow performance.
