Is it possible to modify the suject of email messages for new PM alerts so instead of showing simply "New Private Message at DBSTalk.Com" as the subject, it works more like subscribed threads, with the subject of the PM contained in the subject of the email alert?

For example, if user ABCD sends a PM to me with the subject "About your DVR Setup", all I see in my email inbox is "New Private Message at DBSTalk.Com", but when I open it I see " You have received a new private message at DBSTalk.Com from ABCD, entitled "About your DVR Setup". Can the email subject be changed to echo that first line? Something lk this: "New Private Message at DBSTalk.com from ABCD - About your DVR Setup". (The "at DBSTalk.com could even be eliminated - it's not in the "Reply to post" messages for regular subscribed thread.)

This makes my email "self-documenting" at the subject level. I'm hoping this would make life easier for anyone who uses PM ...

Thanks.

Drew

Sounds like a reasonable request. If you get a lot of PM then this would be great. "New" could also be eliminated.

Thanks... I'm surprised people who receive PMs haven't chimed in more on this request! :p

No moderators have interest in this?

No comments from Chris either!

Sorry for the delay on this. I have been out of town and work piled up on me while I was gone. :)

I have made the changes. Hope it works for you.
