What is Private Messaging?

If the administrator has enabled the Private Messaging system, registered members may send each other private messages.

Private messages work a little like email, but are limited to registered members of this forum.

You may send a private message to a member of this forum by clicking the 'Send Private Message' link in your control panel, or by clicking the related button in a member's posts.

Whenever you read a message, you will have the option to reply to the message, or forward that message to another member of the forum.

You will need to periodically delete old messages, as the administrator has probably set a limit to the number of private messages you can have in your folders. If you exceed the number of messages specified by the administrator, you will not be able to send or receive new messages until you delete some old messages.

When you send a new private message, you may go to the ‘Sent Box’ folder to check whether or not a message has been read by its recipient. The messages in bold font have not yet been read by their recipient.
