Sending a private message now creates:
1) a carbon copy sent to your
cMail;
2) notification (in the alerts, not on top of them :) )
3) no notification that a private message was sent.
If the message contained an inline image (say, an image with a link, to a contest), this does cause a problem. cMail doesn't support these inline images, apparently. You can do an image -attachment- as you can with most regular e-mail these days. But an e-mail that says "Please click this link!" will be a mite confusing! The original may be in your private message folder for a little while until the pmessages are phased out entirely (you may want to look through that folder- as CTap said, as noted in the last few blogs here on the subject, hint hint NUDGE!!!!!!!!!!!- and save the private messages you most want to keep, on your drive perhaps...)
