    Personally I think this is a bad idea. I actually look at my old PMs from time to time to find out info I needed. IMHO you should not expire PMs inside a savebox (custom). Possibly could this be changed to any user not logged in for 6 months that their PM boxes are deleted? To me that would make sense vs deleting active members PM boxes.

    Thanks for the announcement Shawn. That's a great new feature, happy to see it. WebHostingTalk.com should follow suit... I've still got PM's there from 2002! :lol:

    You should just be downloading them into a txt file every so often...Not only does it provide the backup but its way easier to search and find old PM's

    I think this works well because of that feature of being able to download the PM's. I have some dating back to 2002 on other forums and should a system like this appear, I would just download them all if I really needed them.
