Hello, Any ideas about (extended) PM extension for PunBB 1.3 ? Private Message system don't send email after message is delivered to PM box. Or mass PM feature for admins?

Private Message system don't send email after message is delivered to PM box.
I think you should suggest this feature in this topic, this is a discussion of pun_pm extension.
Or mass PM feature for admins?
Broadcast e-mail feature has already been added to extension requests.
I think PM should be an alternative way of message delivering. We've designed pun_pm this way. The current logic of extension functioning (for example, 'sent' status of messages) does not imply e-mail notifications. But forum still allows sending an e-mail.
Of course, e-mail notifications could be added in future versions, but it requires delivery logic modifications.
Hi there,
i would be glad if there would be an email notification about new pms. I got 3 pms in my inbox and didn´t have any info about it. I was called by phone after i didn´t answer the pms

Ok, let's consider a situation. A user sends me a PM. I receive an e-mail notification. Then user changes his mind and cancels PM sending (pun_pm allows this). I go to forum and see no PM. I'm confused.
It should be noted again that the current logic of pun_pm does not imply e-mail notifications.
i think most people didn´t have a clue that a sent pm could be deleted at all. What doesn´t make sense to me anyway. But no notice at all pm is quite useless when i get no info. May be there could be a hint in main navigation "pivate messages (1)" or anything like that.

There is a link "New messages" at the top of every page. When a user receives a PM it becomes "New messages (1)".
I've send you a PM for testing and you could see it.
Some of my users kept missing the PM alert link, not realising they had one. So I changed the text link to an animated GIF of a pigeon flapping its wings and then I set it to Marquee using html so that it flies across the screen when you have a new PM. Works well
