I was trying to send a PM to two members, but it wouldn't work. Finally, after multiple attempts, I noticed an error message at the top saying 'X' has a full mailbox.

Wouldn't it make more sense to send the message anyway to others, and then display the error message on a new clean screen?

Hi Bud. It's a function of vBulletin and the limit placed so your limit must have been reached. Let me look into it and increase the limit but is good from time to time to clean out old and unnecessary messages

Steve, it wasn't my limit, but a recipient. I just think it would have been nice if the message was still sent to the other person, and a clearer error message displayed. If it is the way vbulletin is then so be it. I have no idea how configurable it is. Not a big deal, just a suggestion. Thanks.

My Inbox is often full and I realize it too late because the message is so small. I will be better about moving emails over to a file. Perhaps others have this same problem. I hope to be a bit more vigilant about it.
