Security with PMs?

Security with PMs?
I recieved a message notifiying me that I had a PM. I looked at the URL:http://www.gossamer-threads.com/perl/gforum/gforum.cgi?do=message_view;message=1234[/ul]

I've changed the message number for obvious reasons, because I became very concerned that people could change the message number to something else and everyone could view each other's PMs? Just guess a message number?

Does this work, or are there some security measures in place to guard against this?

Send a pm to me and I'll paste the url to it here to see if you can read it.

Hi,

No, you can only view private messages that are addressed to you regardless of the id number you pass in.

Cheers,

Alex
