Thanks!
But the allowable characters (not including some people here ) was lowered from 5000 to 3000 (and 3000 has begun to be an issue for me) to make that happen. So I am almost 100% positive I know what Tom is going to say this time.
Frankly I don't get it. Seems like you couple of folks who want to archive 500 PMs can just as easily figure out a personal solution. Every time mine fills up I think I need more space and then when I look at the messages I realize I can do without most of them. I think most of us are simply lazy about cleaning up our message files.

I know the issue came up earlier that there was no notification when you were full, until you bounced a message. The forum changes a few weeks ago did change that so that now there is no easy way to see if you are full, except physically checking (didn't it used to say on the upper left how many messages you had in your box?). I agree that many messages aren't needed, but then the more you keep the less you can actually write before having to delete some. I would agree with the other suggestion to automatically delete the oldest message when you are full, as an alternative.
Oh... that was intended to be a funny joke. Sorry if it isn't as funny as it could have been.

I have no problem with your complaining nor would I have a problem with increasing the number if that's what ended up happening. But a vote was asked for and I voted "no" just because I don't know why someone would want to store more than 100 private messages here. 99.9% of my private messages relate to sales, I don't sell things very often to begin with, and when I do I just delete the PMs when the sale is completed.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
a mile away and you'll have their shoes.
One simple method to reduce your PM count is to always quote the text of all prior messages on that subject in the current response.
That way you can delete previous messages on that subject.
The PM software does this for you automatically. You would have to intentionally delete the history in your reply.
