What's the maximum number of PMs you're allowed?

Kameleon · Post by **Kameleon** » Tue May 28, 2002 11:43 am

It's probably not worth a thread, but this was the easiest way I could think of to ask the question. If someone could PM me the answer or post it for the benefit of everyone, or if it could be put in the rules, blurb you read before registering, or whatever, that would be great. Just so I know how close my PM box is to being filled...

I think it is 30 max. That includes pms and sent items. So 15 each max.

Could you not have, say, 25 in the inbox and 5 in the sent items? or something like that??

CM · Post by CM » Tue May 28, 2002 11:51 am

Theoritically that should work. But that is if 30 is the limit. I am guessing this from other UBB's i visit. If 30 is the limit then you can have 29 in the inbox and 1 sent item. The max is 30 no matter what the combination.

I'm not sure exactly what the limit is, but I've got 37 messages and I just deleted a bunch (I think I had over sixty at one point).

Perhaps its not the amount of PMs that is restricted but the amount of Data.

Ok i am wrong. Disregard my above 2 posts. The number must be quite high then. Anybody have any clue how high it is?

The old system used to be 60, regardless of length IIRC. Maybe this is the same, only the outbox is counted too....

Gawd, that would be horrible

How would you know how full your box was? Counting characters?

CM · Post by CM » Tue May 28, 2002 12:02 pm

So 60 is the max? Ok that means 30 each in and out or any other combination. That is good to know.

While the rest of us are limited to 60, Sleep has 74...
Another moderator extra?

I alwaysed assumed it was 90.

However its a shame that message tracking should be counted in

Just enmpty your inbox one in a while.
No problem.

How do you know that?

I thought it was only sent and inbox (plus any additional folders you might have created) that counted.
You can't access any messages via tracking.....and based on my own experience ( I have a fairly full pm box so I keep careful track of what comes in), I don't get the sense tracking actually counts...

If anybody knows this for sure, I would appreciate a clarification
