    Notification of personal messages

    At the top of our screens, beside the Sign In/Sign Out button, we have a link to our personal messages "Inbox".

    Would it be possible to set this to show if we have any unread messages?

    The number of unread messages in brackets would work very well, IMO.

    Great thought, and yes - this would be useful - Bill and Andrea should be able to answer this one.

    I've got to a few PMs late as I hadn't seen them arrive.

    The answer is: YES, we definitely want to add this as a feature. It's been a fairly frequent request since we launched this forum. However, at the moment we are simply adding these enhancements to our "to-do" list. We are in the process of planning a large number of improvements and new features and content to begin appearing after July 1. You should start seeing things such as the Inbox notification after that. So stay tuned!

    Sometimes I am away from my email client, so the notifications that arrive by email are missed. But yes, they the email one always comes through which works well in the interim. Yes
