There will be a major change in the forums database structure soon.
This change will cause that all your saved private messages are lost.

Therefore, if you have saved private messages and you want to keep them,
you are advised to either print them or transfer them to your local hardrive by using your clipboard as an example.

Thanks for listening.

R. · 19 Mar 2005, 14:07

Inbox & Sentbox are fine.
I'm just talking about the saved PMs.

Deb · 19 Mar 2005, 21:29

Try clicking on the poster's username while reading a thread/post.

SuperLoafMan · 19 Mar 2005, 21:41

Oh yeah. If you click on the name it goes to a drop down menu where you can choose the Private Message function

Very cool

Deb, just change your message editor, go to UserCP->Edit Options, scroll all the way down and select a different editor (Enhanced or WYSIWYG).

R. When you send a PM you can confirm in a pop-up that you want a conformation if the other person read the pm or not. Will this also take some space from the PM box?

No, as it's just a flag attached to your message.
