Conversations-->Delete will delete all of Joes messages.
The usual way is to open each message, and press button 'Delete'.
The quicker way is to long-press each message, without opening it, and select 'Delete' in the menu.
The smarter way is to implement interface, such as: button X, which on first press allows user to select and unselect messages without opening them, and on second press deletes selected messages. It should be easy, the interface is HTML+JS+CSS... I might manage it.
Best wishes.
