Email PMs go to the email addess the recipients specified when they created an account at runboard /akheva. The recipient gets a mail with the subject "noreply@runboard" or something like it.

Inbox PMs go to a members' inbox on runboard itself - there is a link to your inbox at the top of every page. Normal users have space for 7 inbox mails, premium users can store 20.

You have set your settings to not accept mails into your inbox (in fact, you don't accept any mails at all...).

Re: Character Limit on PM's?


Yes, that's right. I don't accept p-mails and messages or whatever they are called emoticon

I just don't understand the reason for having a PM and an email-function possibility. Both thingies are ending up in your private mailbox and both times you can't see the real email of the sender and as a sender you don't know the email of the recipent. That's absolute OK but I still find only similarities and no big differences and can't see the reason why Thor is giving us two possibilities for one and the same. To reach a member of a forum.

Re: Character Limit on PM's?


I think both are useful for discussing things that should not be on a board - private, admin or whatever.

When I write an email-Private Message, and I like the person I mail to, I often include my mailadress, so we can move on to pure mail. I prefer it that my address is not visible for everyone, however, and the runboard (almost typed akheva here) system allows me that much privacy.

Inbox PMs never leave runboard, and they are useful for people who run a seperate mail program - like I do. Inboxes can be accessed through the browser and are more comfortable that way - and I think they are faster. They also protect your privacy even more.

Could I persuade you to at least accept inbox PMs?

Ah, now I understand. Thanx for the explanation.

No, you couldn't persuade me.I would love to do that on your board for writers. Btw., what I like there is that you have also a possibility for english speaking people. emoticon

I get no other idea as to take another account for other boards if I want to communicate private.
