Quoth Bill,

you could always go to the TMP Poll Suggestions board and start a mass movement in support of that

The question: Would you support adding an Outbox function for PMs?
Yes – what a great idea!
No – I see no need for this, because I never forget.

The reason I rise to propose this is that right now you can never read what you've sent to somebody else, once you post it. A minor bother, perhaps, but isn't it always the niggles that get the most irritating eventually?

John the OFM11 Apr 2013 3:51 p.m. PST

Yes I would.
It is very annoying to get a PM that only replies without a quote and I can't remember what I said. grin

Maddaz11111 Apr 2013 3:51 p.m. PST

yea!

Yes !

Yes, we need a PM outbox… i've had several times where I needed to look up an old PM that I had sent, but was unable too.


ALSO, when replying is there any way to keep the "RE:" to only one time, instead of adding extra "RE:"s

For example… after a back and forth my message subject becomes:

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Message

doc mcb11 Apr 2013 4:09 p.m. PST

Yes, please.

GaryRP11 Apr 2013 4:11 p.m. PST

Sounds like a useful feature. I would vote yes.

rmcaras Supporting Member of TMP11 Apr 2013 4:14 p.m. PST

YES, please!

and while your at it some basic message control, such as selecting and deleting without having to open up each message, scroll to the bottom & deleting.

Jakar Nilson11 Apr 2013 4:45 p.m. PST

Sounds like a no-brainer…

abelp0111 Apr 2013 5:02 p.m. PST

yes, please!

Oh Bugger11 Apr 2013 5:17 p.m. PST

Yes! Just the ticket.

richarDISNEY11 Apr 2013 6:08 p.m. PST

Double plus good!

korsun0 Supporting Member of TMP11 Apr 2013 6:09 p.m. PST

You can delete the "Re" in the title each time….

A good idea I think. The features would depend a lot on the code and the capability I suppose but some sort of archive would be useful.

Same with old Market Place posts, when I search I only get back a few results….

jerardad11 Apr 2013 6:16 p.m. PST

Yes.

Sergeant Paper11 Apr 2013 6:51 p.m. PST

And 'Yes, please.' from me too.

War Panda11 Apr 2013 7:07 p.m. PST

Yes and immediately please (or sooner if you like)

SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER11 Apr 2013 7:23 p.m. PST

I find myself in agreement with all in favor!
Yes!

FusilierDan Supporting Member of TMP11 Apr 2013 7:53 p.m. PST

Charles Marlow11 Apr 2013 7:54 p.m. PST

I'm in favour of the purposed new function.

Midpoint11 Apr 2013 8:13 p.m. PST

Cyrus the Great11 Apr 2013 9:16 p.m. PST

Yes!

plutarch 6412 Apr 2013 2:43 a.m. PST

I think I may have sent you a PM on this earlier, Sergeant, but I'm not sure now.

Yes, great idea.

galvinm12 Apr 2013 4:21 a.m. PST

Yes!

When you get to be my age and condition, you don't remember anything.

What were we talking about?

Personal logo etotheipi Sponsoring Member of TMP12 Apr 2013 4:51 a.m. PST

Yerp.

Chris Rance12 Apr 2013 5:43 a.m. PST

Another yes vote.

Doug em4miniatures12 Apr 2013 6:42 a.m. PST

Since my post started this TMP link I must say "yes indeedy".
How does this poll stuff work? (I opted out of polls years ago).

Doug

Tommy2012 Apr 2013 7:49 a.m. PST

Seems unanimous!

The Tin Dictator12 Apr 2013 9:12 a.m. PST

Yes.
Also, I'd like to be able to delete multiple messages at once rather than only one at a time.

Rrobbyrobot12 Apr 2013 10:07 a.m. PST

Yes.

BigNickR12 Apr 2013 8:20 p.m. PST

John the Greater15 Apr 2013 6:07 a.m. PST

I say yes. Though I was tempted to vote no just to be contrary.

Uesugi Kenshin Supporting Member of TMP15 Apr 2013 5:48 p.m. PST

Sure.
