Looks like it was intentionally set that way in privatemsg_user(). I preferred the old default where private messages were enabled by default. Patch attached to turn it back on.

It would appear that someone has already made this change to the privatemsg module

According to 51378, this code can cause problems with other forms.. it appears removing this code will also have the effect of defaulting them to on. I'm going to combine that change with the recommendation in comment #3 that sending emails shouldn't default to on.
