Hi Scott, I am now thinking of using Private Messages even more in the ST product suite - for example, I am working on a "My Friends" functionality for the ST UserProfile module, and I want to send a "Friend Request" email to the user you want to add as your friend. I then thought that instead of reinventing the wheel I could just call the PM CreateMessage (or whatever) and it would handle the sending et.c of the message. The advantages are that the use gets a consistient interface and all their internal mails are stored in one place. I have the same requirement for inviting people to events, groups and leagues, but I think it could be quite a simple requirement. Obviously I don't want to create work for you - I just wanted to hear your thoughts on this - do you expose the CreateMessage function in your assembly? I would have to reference the .dll but I would wrap it in a Setting so that they have to have it installed. What do you think?

A few methods, you could reference the assembly or directly call the stored proc. Let me know if there is anything you need from my side to achieve this.
