I've Made A Change In E-Mail Notifications Of PMs

Post by tex »

Hi All,

I've made a change in the way that we are notified by e-mail, whenever we have a new PM waiting for us on the board. A few weeks ago, a few members reported receiving e-mails advising them that there was a new PM waiting for them on the board, but when they logged in, they couldn't find any new PMs.

This should eliminate that problem, because now, if you have elected for the system to notify you by e-mail, that you have a new PM, the e-mail will not only tell you who sent the PM, but it will also include the entire message from the PM, in the body of e-mail. Of course, you can still log on and read the PMs the same way you've always done in the past, this change just gets the message to you faster, if you are not already logged onto the board, and this eliminates having to log on to the board just to read the PM.

The only downside to doing this that I can see, is if you change your mind after you submit the PM, you will no longer be able to edit or delete it, because the system will promptly send it to the recipient, in an e-mail.

If you have any questions, or if it doesn't work correctly for you, please let me know.

Tex
