TA Private Message Mailbox and login questions
1. How many messages does it take for it to get full?
2. If it is full, what happens? When someone sends me a PM, will the system automatically delete the oldest one to make room for the new message or, will that person NOT be able to send it?
3. How long can a user leave Private Messages in the mailbox before they get deleted automatically? Does this apply to UNREAD messages as well?
4. If I don't login to TA for a LONG time (6 months+) will my account be affected?

1. I think around 42 messeges
2. No the system will not automatically delete an older messege, it will send an email telling you that your PM box is full.
3.I don't think there is a limit
4.No, i don't think so.

1) 60
2) From the FAQ which nobody reads: "You will need to periodically delete old messages, as the administrator has probably set a limit to the number of private messages you can have in your folders. If you excede the number of messages specified by the administrator, you will not be able to send or receive new messages until you delete some old messages."
3) They don't get deleted.
4) No

Where are PMs stored at that the Admin usually ends up setting a limit? A small HDD? Anyway, thanks for the info!
