A few months ago I implemented a "Sent PM" system on PrimeGrid's Boinc
system.  I can look into back-porting that into the BOINC git repository if
you'd like.  It's not a difficult implementation; one schema change and a
few php and inc files.

Feel free to hop on over to PrimeGrid and take a look at how our PM system
works and let me know if does what you need.  My user ID over there
is 53948 if you want someone to exchange PMs with.

On our system, you can see your PM inbox, outbox, and a combined view.  You
can reply to your outgoing PMs (it will send to the original recipient),
and both the sender and recipient can 'delete' the message from their
in/out box independently.  (There's only one copy of the message, with a
bitmask to record who has deleted it.)

Better would be a "Sent Items" folder.

I like the idea of cc self for PMs, but that will also double the number of
PMs shown on the screen.  As it is, a large number of PMs results in an
awful lot of scrolling.  If cc is implemented, I would also suggest adding
pagination to reduce the scrolling and also speed up viewing (less text =
less bandwidth and faster rendering on the browser).

As a CPDN moderator I thoroughly endorse William's request. The PM
feature
was great leap forward when it was first introduced (by Rytis?), but
although a lot of time and effort have been devoted to developing BOINC
itself, this feature has been left untouched. I can think of a few more
private messaging features I would like but the copy to self, preferably
in
my view kept in a separate Sent box, is the most important.

Hi,

feature request for Private Messages (PMs).

Can we please get a 'copy to self' tickbox or something?

Standard PMs keep no record for the sender, unless you put your own uid
into the to: box.
This is vastly annoying - I can't remember every PM I sent or to whom
and
I've yet to form a habit of cc'ing me by adding my own uid.
If people don't reply I lose track and if they don't quote me on a
reply,
there can be uncertainty as to what exactly was said in the first
place.

Especially moderators do need records if they make moderation requests
by
PM, but I guess every normal user would find the option very helpful,
too

Some tech support is also done by PM and suffers from insufficient
records.

I suggest a tickbox option [default ticked, toggle in Community
preferences] so people can choose whether or not to keep a record.

Regards,
William (SETI moderator)
