Hello, just wondering if there is any way to increase the size of the PM box to more than 500 messages.

I run into this alot:

There are days when I am inundated with PMs and when i go over the limit, I stop receiving them.

I always try to clean it out but it always goes back up very rapidly.
I try not to save alot of sent out messages by unchecking that option.

You see, I have to keep a record of certain PMs for about a month, but I find myself having to delete some of them due to size constraints.

Thanks if you can do anything

Why do you need old PMs (if they are of the B&S variety)?

Congratulations! I didn't know you were pregnant, I don't think the mods will take your baby.

I believe it's possible to download PMs and store them on your hard drive. Then you can delete old ones at will.

Wait until after the first trimester has passed, then graciously accept any and all congratulations.

Whether you contact the Enquirer is your call.
