    How about a small indicator in your PM inbox telling you how many more you can recieve beofre it becomes full.

    eg. 8/20 or something.

    Sounds like a good idea. Is the existing system based on the number of messages, or their size, though?

    I think there's a limit of 75 messages (inbox+sent) for normal punters, more for subscribers

    Ok, see what you think of it now.

    Extra PM storage for Subscribers isn't impossible, it's just a pain in the arse job that I haven't gotten around to yet.

    Id support the PM count thingey, a good idea indeed.

    something else id like to see is a sign-in box in the corner of the forum pages so you dont have to go to the main page or a post reply etc to log in, however the PM count would be more useful!

    Open your User CP and drop down to Private Messages. Top of the list.

    (the total is still there on the main vbulletin page)

    No, it's not there.

    Probably something to do with me being a subscriber? :)

    Nobody reads my bleedin' posts.

    If you don't have a quota, you won't have a counter.

    Pfft, you didn't say that explicitly. To work it out for myself would have involved using my brane. You wouldn't want us doing that now would you? :p

    You have an unlimited inbox.
    got an email today sayin my inbox was full, and the indicator still isnt there.

    You shouldn't see the indicator. Can you PM me the contents of the mail?
