Confirmation of PM viewing
In view of the upcoming version 2 of Gossamer Forum; Would it be possible to have a function whereby a user posting a Private Message (PM) can request for a confirmation that the recipient has seen the message ?
The recipient can then choose to confirm or not to confirm having viewed the message like in Outlook even if the sender has requested confirmation.

Also as previously stated it would be nice to be able to send mesasges as a moderator or admin to a group or create a favourite users list so that you can send one mail to the list of selected users.

Only if it's a switchable option for the admin. I personally wouldn't turn it on.

I understand that in certain implementations of the forum this may not be desirable, but in my case where it's basically for people that know each other and see each other 'in real life' Wink it's a function that could be very useful.
However as you say the admin should be able to choose whether the function is available or not.

I dont see why this cant be desirable... The silence in an answer too, and is very important to know where the silence comes (in case of no reply). The user should know if a silence (no reply) comes from the other user and NOT from a script failure or mail troubles Smile

Just my opinion.

Generally, I'd think each user should be able to specify whether or not they want to automatically respond to those. Perhaps, once a "buddy-list" is supported, you'll have an option something like:

Send Message Read notifications: Yes | No | Only for users in my buddy list
