Private messages per string.

[GaryTcs]

Is it possible to only be notified once per string in PM? I mean if subscribe to a thread can I be notified only once when it is added to, until I check the thread? I post, then go away for a few hours, and when I come back, I got to check every update notification to make sure I hit all the threads. Not a big deal, but when 5 or 10 of them are from one thread, I gotta look at every one, even though I read all 5 new messages when I checked the first one.

Yeah, that's a bit annoying. Can't PM's about the same subject be "threaded" somehow like in your e-mail program ?

Oh yeah, i'll concur with this... some of those OT and GH threads are LONG... i come back, and there's like 50+ PM. Even on cable, it takes a long time to look through them. Or at least have the title of the thread available so i can check the one i want to delete without having to open up the PM.

That's a great idea actually - I'd love to see it if it were possible.

No, private messages are single messages just like ICQ, that is there purpose and they will stay that way.

Zuni,

how about a title for the PM, like Moralpanic suggested ? Something like "Zuni has posted a reply to the thread entitled "Private messages per string."."

I don't know if it's easy to implement that a notification for an update in a thread gets the title of that thread. Would be a nice feature though.

Sorry, no. Thanks for the suggestions though.
