This is driving me mad. Any time I logout or reboot my Mac Pro or MacBook Air, OS X 10.8.x Messages loads deleted messages and they're all blank. I've read many threads on this issue, deleted relevant caches, etc but it seems the server side keeps records that should be expunged. Additionally, they're listed as telephone digits, doesn't even associate the contact with the message. Argh!
If anyone knows how to address this issue, I'll be forever in your debt.
