PM Question.

The PM service is a good thing, and works great, however i would like to know a few things.
On php boards, you have a pm inbox and outbox.
Here on caedes we only have a inbox, we have no way to read back our send pm's.
Sometimes, pms come back so late, that i already forgot what it was about in the first place ! hehe he :-)
It might be only me, but i would like to see a pm outbox to, is it possible to switch / activate this on for the users ?
Second question, what is the space limmit for pms ? right now, if i am over 10, i start to delete, seeing i do not know what the max is.

Thanks for your time, and have a good weekend,

Hans

There are a lot of upgrades in the planning stage for the PM system. Currently I have 555 messages in my inbox if that gives you any sense of scale.

Over 3000 ??!! Man, thanks Jacqueline ! Now I don't feel so bad about my backlog. ;o) And I know exactly what you mean, Hans ... I often have to go back & ask what I said.

Being of that 'certain age' where I forget things very easily - especially what I've written to someone - I've now found a way of working round the 'No Outbox' problem...

Before sending your message to a member, just right-click your mouse, highlight your text and then left-click 'copy'.

Then click on your own user name, hit the 'Send personal message' tab and paste a copy of your sent message, which will be stored in your InBox for easy future reference.

not bad for a work-around, but i'm guessing a whole bunch of people here would love a button to hit..and done
