How many PM's can you have?

Just curious if there is a limit for many PM's you can have in the inbox?
I recall other forums having an upper limit, that's why I asked.  :)

The more PMs you have the longer the pages take to load. Why not use my method? When you have a certain number of PMs, save the inbox & outbox pages before emptying them & starting again. Use different file names each time you do this (Pm_In_01 etc). Then you can read your old PMs offline whenever you wish. ;)

PS. This reminds me. It's about time I did it myself - again. ::)

Best to read 'em & delete 'em.

If they are important save them but I see no point in keeping them stored here.

Saitek - if they're worth keeping, like Hagar says, save them to your drive.  Not only do you keep the messages, but any links therein remain.

Well, I just realized a few months back that there was a outbox feature.  I had messages in there from almost two years ago.  I think I must have freed up about a ton of server space when I deleted them...  ;)
