I would like to be able to see, as an administrator, any messages that a user has in their boxes.

Creepy...

Actually, I didn't mean that you were creepy. Just, the way you went out and said it like that is creepy lol. Can I ask why you'd want to read members messages? They are considered private information. However, I'm guessing you can look at the database tables to read the messages (using phpAdmin or something like that).

One possible reason would be to deal with abuse.

i.e. Alice says that Bob sent her an obscene message. The administrator of the site could then view her messages to check for a message from Bob, verify that it was obscene, and then ban Bob. :-)

I am just the developer. I honestly don't care what the users are messaging to each other but the site owner apparently wants to know for one reason or another. Presumably to make sure everyone follows the rules and if not to allow the site owner access to the information needed to take action.
