Why not a feature?

It'd make saving 'em a lot easier.

Grr.

I'm not sure we've ever had that feature. It'd be a good one though.

I know IPB has the ability the export your PMs for quick saving though.

Gah. I keep copying-and-pasting the PMs I want to save but the formatting keeps f-ing up.

We had the feature.

Someone, The Human Torch or some office worker, had posted about how nifty it was because they would print stuff out to show their coworkers.

We had it and still have it for threads (bottom-left corner under the topic/reply buttons), but we've never had it for PMs.

Ummm....I don't know what this means....but a giant iceberg just winked at me.

I still think the most efficient way to save PMs (especially ones with a lot of back and forth) is to save the entire page on your hard drive.

Oh, hey, I missed that whole "PM" part in the message topic. Never mind me, move along, move along. [Big Grin]

That's probably the best and most common idea that anyone would do, but I don't mind copying and pasting though it's a pain in the backside.
