Cannot delete my own Teams message - but can edit

Copper Contributor

How can I delete my own Teams message? I find it ironic that I can edit the message but cannot delete it.

I have tried to leave blank when in editing mode but to no avail. This is really ridiculous.

Hello!

Probably the policy of your user has "Delete sent messages" off and "Edit sent messages" on.

Hope this helps you,
To add to the above it is controlled by the Messaging policy.
