    Anyone have any good references for a tutorial, or instructions, on setting up a PM (Private Message) system using php and mysql? Pretty much the same way as Digital Point's PM system.

    there isn't much to it, you just have a table of users and a table of messages with rows marked as read/unread and allow users to select a user to send it to. I'm sure you could find some messaging scripts around google if you didn't feel like making your own.

    What Paris said. As for DP's PM system, that's a built-in feature that all forum systems have (with DP using vBulletin) but I'm sure you knew that.
