Message box almost full...

I have no idea how difficult (impossible?) it would be to implement, but it would be nice to be notified when your message box is 'almost full' instead of only being told that it is full and that messages have been bouncing.
Is it do-able to maintain the maximum number of messages (40) but having, say the latest one or two messages only readable if you have a total of 38 (or 39) messages or less? That way you would be notified about the need for clearing while still not having other people resend PM's.

can you not look at the bit at the top of the page that tells you "YOU HAVE 28 MESSAGES IN YOUR FOLDERS FROM A MAXIMUM OF 40" type thing like the rest of us. Or maybe empty it now and again.
I always click the box to stop outgoing PM's being stores in the sent box, that helps.

is this yet more private message tension?

sorry.

No tension...just trying to be clever.
Not sure if I am since the unknown burden would be passed on to another.

Haha...this has now been implemented.

May have been around forever by now, but I just noticed it.
Nice that someone else liked the idea after all. I am well happy with it, thanks to anyone responsible for it.
