Ziploc: As the vBulletin software stands right now, there is no way to query the recipient's PM box to check for FULLNESS... Sending a Test message would work, but what if that recipient already had 69 total messages in his/her PM box? Then that Test message would've just taken up the last pigeon hole!!

Yes, it would be nice if vBulletin had a "Save in Drafts" folder -- kind of like many e-mail tools!!!

Thanks a ton! That's just the kind of thing I was looking for! I'll read how to do it and give a try as soon as I have time.

Click back in your browser. Then cut and paste the text to another file.

Thanks kemo! I never get down there so I never noticed that. Now that I know the limit is 70 that will be very useful.

You can delete private messages before they are read so she could send the test one, delete it, then send the real one.

I think cut, paste, and save to another file is a better solution though.
