I'd really like to be able to see PMs I've sent, and it would be nice if I could sort the display of my PMs, by date at least.
Thanks.

Me too! This will be something that everyone will get when I get the site migrated. I'm working on it but unfortunately the software I want to use is on the cusp of a new major release so I'm trying to figure out how to migrate the other elements of the site that are not forum-based. I'll be working on this heavily over the next couple of weeks and should have better information soon. Thanks!

Mark,

What about sending the same one PM to multiple NAM members without having to do it individually?
Thanks.

I'm unsure if this is supported or not. It make sense but I'll have to look into this as I work on the migration. Sorry I don't have a definitive answer for this question yet...

Can this be done by using regular e-mail addresses or do some people not put an e-mail address in their information?

This presents a problem for users if you expose email addresses as bots commonly scan the site (as they do all sites) looking for what appear to be email addresses. If they were to find email addresses that were exposed in this way everyone would immediately appear on a bunch of spam lists. Given this PM systems that mimic email provide much of the same functionality as email without the spam. This is due to the level of indirection (ie - username on the site versus email address) that the PM environment offers.
