Hey, I've installed the Privatemsg module and it appears to be working except that I can't find any settings for sending emails when a private message arrives (or documentation on getting this working).
I want an email to be sent when a PM is received regardless of whether a user has choosen it or not, it would be ok if they could opt out (instead of currently having to opt in) but I can't even find a setting to allow me to do anything relating to email. Maybe an idea to add an option in the admin menu?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

randomuser commentedHey, im still looking for documentation for enabling the email function of this module, I want users to opt out from receiving them as opposed to opting in but I cant even get that far. Where are settings to send out emails? I cant even find anything to do with email.

rccgd commentedI'm also looking for this feature. As admin, I would like to globally set, on all accounts, to send out an email when the user receives an email. The user has the option to opt out if they choose (setting in their own account profile). Thank you for the assistance.

thekk commentedI also wanted this feature, so I created a patch against the 5.x-1.8 current release. I found out it is relatively simple, because the building blocks are already in place.
Could a 1.9 version with this patch be released, if the patch is committed?

kriskd commentedDo you know if this patch will work with the PM mod on Ubercart? I'm using that version because it allows sending a PM to multiple recipients.
Also, does this patch switch the default to sending e-mails for PM to "every message" for just new registrations of all current members as well as new registrations?

thekk commentedI don't know whether this patch works with that PM mod. If that mod changes any hooks in the sending phase, it will probably have to be extended. Please find out!
The switch is made only for new registering users, and users that have not saved their personal settings. Users that saved their personal settings will not automatically be converted. BTW: this patch doesn't switch the default settings, that has to be done by the site admin.

niklp commentedHave any of you read the project page text? 1.8 is the final version. No mods. Use 2.x if you want this, or to submit any patches!

berdirSorry for pinging the participants, I am closing old issues.
This version of Privatemsg is not supported anymore, maybe it is already implemented in Privatemsg for Drupal 6 and if not, you are welcome to open a new issue for it.
