Here goes.

- Adding a "Send PM" link in user profiles
- Making it possible to edit a PM until the other person has opened it
- Adding the option to receive an automatic mail warning you that you got a new PM

Didn´t Tina have a function that made her able to notify you if you get PMs? Maybe it isn´t finished but I´m sure I heard something about such a function.

The first suggestion you got would probably be added too sometime, as we had it on the other board.

The second I´m a bit doubtful about. There could be both good and bad sides to it, but I don´t know what the bad sides would be yet. But I like the idea.

The only reason it isn't in profiles is mostly because Acmlm got lazy with adding that kind of thing (as useful as it'd be)...

PhpBB has such a feature, and there's no problem to report...

-don't prefix "Re: " when replying to a message that already starts with "Re: "
this is how most everything else behaves.

Yeah, that too...
The already suggested (long ago) "Re[number]: " is fine.

If you do add any E-mail notification feature for PMs or anything else, please for the love of Athe* have it turned off by default. I hate certain boards that flood my inbox with all kinds of crap whenever anyone replies to a thread I posted in.

*Athe = the god of Atheism

Many boards have mails sent automatically when new PMs arrive by default, but I've never seen one that does that for thread replies...
Anyway, I wouldn't mind it if PM mails were off by default.

I saw a fairly large vBulletin that would notify on all thread replies in threads you posted in (even if you didn't start the thread) by default. "Big 4" boards (Proboard, Invision, phpBB, vBulletin) have way too much feature bloat. Remember when there was a much greater variety in board systems?

My inbox is already flooded as it is from another forum that has that option where you can't turn it off.

Hell, I don't even know if sendmail works here.
