Please Install PM Preview 3.5!

[Paul M]

Hmm, having now seen what it is, I think it would be very useful.

Most PM conversations I have with people all go back and forth between us with the same PM title - when people reply, they never change the title, even weeks later when replying on a totally unrelated matter - this makes it very hard to locate the one you're looking for when you go back to them.

Also helps when pruning your PM mailbox.. no need to open up each one...

I second this request.

I have everything from customers to users that need help PM me here, i would like to know what each PM is about ahead of time.

Well --- I mean c'mon, a number of people have agreed with me on this, so pelase install it? There is no reason not to. k thx.

Looking at the Hack, it seems useless to me - as useless as thread previews.
I always read my PMs anyway, so I don't need a preview

But that is just my personal opinion

You didn't bother to read the rest of the posts in this thread I see, otherwise you would have seen that this is completly irrelevant to my reason for supporting it.

I did read. This was just to explain why I find it useless

@Psionic Vision
A search function, that'd be indeed useful.

There is one major difference between thread previews and pm previews: pm previews are displayed without hovering the mouse over the title.

I always read my pms too, but as it was pointed out earlier, it is hard to find older pms with specific content, esspecially if there is a lot of pms with the same title. Therefore, this hack is very useful for the purpose of managing old correspondence.

[akanevsky]

There is no need for a search functions when this hack is installed - you can literally see what the message is about without opening it.

As Paul pointed out, your explanation is completely irrelevant to the nature of this hack...
