i was just wondering if it would be possible to have folders in the pm's inbox and out box?

i do a lot of trades and get lost sometimes and have to look through all my pm's to see what i am asking for or giving out.

just figured it may be easier to have say a folder that has "pending trades" or "confirmed trades so you know who you are done dealing with and who you still have to deal with and maybe a folder like sending first as i get a lot of people who send first to me, i accidently delete the pm and than i am lost as you can only have 30 pm's so i try and make room, i usually try and do this in my email once i confirm but would save a lot of time if i just had folders in my inbox to sort through them.

anyway just my 2 cents not sure if anyone else has this problem, maybe i am just to short on time as i work a lot so i try not to be on here to much(but i always am anyway).

will

The PM system really shouldn't be used for any information that needs to be kept for any real length of time, so there's really not a benefit to making it easier to organize information there. If it's trade information, I can't stress enough how much it really should be done by email, not PMs.

I agree with this. There's too much stuff that can get lost in the shuffle, and if you log out a lot, you might not catch a PM until it's too late. E-mail is just a much safer medium.
