I'm just wondering, are you ever going to raise the amount of PMs you can store? I'm just asking this because 50 is pretty small, compared to the amount you can store on Blizzforums and the fact that whenever you reply to a PM, it counts as another.
That brings me to my second question. If you delete a sent PM, does that delete it for the person you sent it to too?

I delete my PMs right after I send them or reply to them.

I actually think it's better with the 50 messages limit. I just archive them about every two weeks, which seems fine to me. If I had to archive them more I might complain. What I do is I just go 'Save as Text' and that way I still have my messages somewhere on my hard disk, and my inbox is free to accept more messages again.
The thing is, if we get this map making group up and running, my PMs might overflow. But I'll complain about that when it happens.
Actually, I wasn't going to make a big fuss out of this, but since the topic has been brought up, there's another problem...
If you click the 'Save as Text' link, it brings up the default filename of 'private' where it used to bring up 'private 03-04-04.txt' or something similar.

Well, I know what you mean, but to forfill this no-good nagging sissy, we COULD raise it to 55, right? Right. And renember to delete your PM's every know and then.

It's a bit harder for those of us that play Diplo though, and I think that's why he brings it up, I usually have to archive mine every few days (I do this for all my Diplo PM's not my 'normal' ones). But oh well, it's fine for now I guess, just gets a bit annoying, but it's not life or death.
