Mods and Admins should be able to send PM's to users regardless if they are over their limit or not.. I now cant mail some users. 2. PM limits per groups. Can anyone let me know the SQL command to clear down old messages again so I can write to some users ? TA

As per #1 in sendmessage.php

Find this:

Code

<br />	if ($total >= $config['total_pm']) {<br />		$html->not_right($ubbt_lang['PM_OVERLIMIT'],$Cat);<br />	}<br />

change to this:

Code

<br />	if (($total >= $config['total_pm']) && (($user['U_Status'] != "Administrator") && ($user['U_Status'] != "Moderator"))) {<br />		$html->not_right($ubbt_lang['PM_OVERLIMIT'],$Cat);<br />	}<br />

Untested, but that should do the trick.

[/] Imo, it would be better to allow users to receive PM's from mods/admins regardless of whether they are maxed out or not, rather than deleting their messages which might cause anger I'm actually kind of surprised that this isn't standard functionality.
