I used to get an email containing the message in a new PM. I've noticed recently that changed and the message is no longer contained.

Was something changed? I much prefer the old method.

It was changed a few weeks ago as a protective measure when we started getting hit by PM spammers sending messages with links to suspicious sites. There are a couple of threads about it here in Forum Talk.

It was my way of keeping more than 100 PMs for future reference, I store them in my own email. Will it ever change back?

You can download your PMs in various formats. Look at the bottom of the screen in your PM window.

Simple solutions are always best. I preferred the way it was. It also meant I didn't have to log in to read a PM if it wasn't something that needed immediate attention.

As much as I'd like things to go back to the way they were, methinks I'm flogging a dead horse. :)
