Arrow Reading PM's

Can anyone tell me if it is possible for moderators or admins to read PM's in users inboxes? This is important as we need to ensure that PM's are secure and not breaking company regulations before we go ahead and implement.

Thanks

Administrators can change your password, they can then use that to access your private messages. Although you then cannot access your account and therefor know that something strange has happend. But No, they cannot view any outgoing and incoming messages via the admin Control Panel or anywhere else for that matter.

A modification would be required in order to read PMs. So, this cannot be done at this time.

[ visit forumer modifications center today]

We now have phpBB modifications available.
