I run a site that allows users to have multiple accounts. What I would like to see is an option to allow the user to forward all pm's from one account to another account. The features should include the following.
Forward all pm's to account of your choice
When #1 (above) is done, a notification pm goes to the recieving account
When #2 (above) is done, the recieving account must do something (not sure what) to allow the pm's to be accepted from the other account.
An option on the recieving account to stop accepting forwards from a particular account (in case of multiple forwards to the same account).
An option in the ACP to allow/disallow forwards.
User/usergroup forwarding control (be able to turn on/off forwarding for a particular usergroup and/or user).
Ideas?

Is this going to be an automatic thing or just select the appropriate messages and then click forward?
Why? The user is already receiving the PM's.
Then have it set that the account cannot be sent forwards so the originator cannot select them (have a dropdown with those users that only accept forwards).
Same as #3
Easily done.
Again easily done.
Is this a request for ideas or someone to make it?

It is for all pms for that user to be forwarded to the other box. It is not to move existing messages in that box to the other one, just all new messages.
This is so the user can check all his/her pms for all his/her accounts in one spot if they choose.
I was thinking more like a mailing list where when you get the email, you have the option to unsubscribe. Maybe something like that can be done here. When the request to accept forwards from xxx user come into the recieving account's pms, they will have an option to say "yes" or "no". This will prevent ppl from forwarding their pms to the wrong account by accident.
If they ever want to turn off forwarding, the recieving account can just "uncheck" to box that it is accepting forward from to turn it iff.
Cool
