Hi All,

Do you think it might be an idea to send the recipient an email alert when they receive a PM?

I don’t generally check if I have PMs and it’s not very noticeable that one has arrived if you are not expecting it.
In the same way, I don’t have faith that somebody I send a pm to will notice it either. So I post on the forum that I’ve pm’d them because I know that that will generate an email. But that sort of defeats the purpose of the message being private, so it’s not ideal.

I think that would be great, especially for “newbies”, who probably need to see them the most. From a phone, you have to actively search them out. There is no obvious notice until you check your profile.

At the moment you can have email notifications of PM.

It defaults to no, don’t send email just in case somebody registered with a work email and don’t want to get emails.

If you go to Private Messages there is a settings link bottom left. You can also have pop up alerts on if you want.

YMMV
