    Default PM stars like gmail has?

    I would LOVE for there to be a system having to do with PMs in my inbox where I could select an icon to be seen next to the PM title. This works for 'reminding' myself of what messages I still need to respond more to or which contain info I will need to access. If you have a Gmail email account you know what I mean. Something to highlight certain messages to make them stick out from the others in a nutshell. Is this possible? Thanks!

    I like the idea...in theory. But I'm still reeling and trying to adjust to the raft of all the other new "improvements" to the site - I guess I don't like change much, and while it may be useful to help sort PMs, I think it's just another layer than can be done without.

    Of course, I don't use PM nearly as much as other (probably like yourself, Alex) so my sense of what's needed is probably a little off base.

    Just my $0.02...

    If this would work with the new privatemessages output I would be as happy as a pig in a sty

    I run Linux so it wouldn't do me any good. Looks cool though.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    You could try WINE

    On a Mac...

    And Mark is generally right- my incoming PM's can get very busy and confusing if I have a ton to reply to- so some sort of icon or organizational system would do wonders for guys like me.

    Do you already use different folders? They aren't a highlight or a star but they help for organization.

    Yes, the point is- I want a highlighting (thanks for the label) system to differentiate between urgency of messages. If no one else is into it, forget it.

    Yeah I'd like that too. Just pointing out workarounds
