For those who does not use PM, it may be of least concern. But for others who use it, I would prefer any kind of popup or notification when we get the PM, in our PM box. I do not see any issue, if this feature is added. Though would leave it on others, for any better suggestions.

MM1234 Posts: 270 Rating: (52)	Well I did just set it on, so someone, send me some PM please, so we can try it. I am not really sure, but I recall turning it on when i registered here at first and I think I have received something... Perhaps it was only in time when I was not online, though, or maybe not for PMs at all...

Moderators got private messages each day. So when the counter of messages changes from 0 to 1 normally we realized this very fast. There are thoughts about an configurable email notification for all those which are not so often online. Let's wait and see what could be done The idea with something like a popup is interesting. Maybe not only for private messages? We will have a thought about it after the campaign. So thank you for all your ideas to make this grandiose platform even better Best regards CS Moderator

Actually, I don't know if anyone here usesinbuilt chat intohis/her mail accountfromnot named company(I give you a hint, though, first three letters are GOO :-]), but when you are online there and someone sends you new message, it shows the information in the name of the page at start, it startsalternating every few secondsbetween the normal name and like "[This guy's name] said...". What I really like about it is, that when you have opened many tabs in your browser, you still notice it. So perhaps something like that could be considered too?

On the other hand sending an email would also be one of the option. But it would be nice if some one is already on the forum and can really get an information as soon as he gets a PM. I sometime send PM to few guys, even though they are online, but still they see my PM after a while, and vice versa.
