 * Hello there,
 * First of all many congratulation about your plugin is awesome!
 * I was wondering if it is possible to notify a user by sending an e-mail to him(
   to inform his that there is a new message) when another user use the PRIVATE 
   MESSAGING SYSTEM to send him a message?
 * Is it possible to have email notifications with your PRIVATE MESSAGING SYSTEM?
   to notify users when they have a new message?
 * ———————
 * If it is not possible maybe i could buy your “Custom Profile Tabs” extension 
   and add a new tab ‘Contact’ ([https://profilegrid.co/extensions/custom-user-profile-tabs-content/](https://profilegrid.co/extensions/custom-user-profile-tabs-content/))
   and add a contact form 7 and use the following tutorial:

   Set the Recipient (To) Email Address in Contact Form 7 ([https://sevenspark.com/wordpress-plugins/how-to-dynamically-set-the-recipient-to-email-address-in-contact-form-7](https://sevenspark.com/wordpress-plugins/how-to-dynamically-set-the-recipient-to-email-address-in-contact-form-7)).
 * Do you think it is possible to work?
 * Please let me know what do you think:)
 * Kind Regards,
    Yiannis

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for reaching out. Currently, the requested feature of email notifications
   with private messaging system is unavailable. However, we have analyzed and added
   the feature to our road-map list. It will be included in one of our upcoming 
   versions.
 * Note that the features implementation is driven by user demand and on first come
   first basis, so we cannot give timeline at this point. We will mention the feature
   in the change log on our plugin page at WordPress.Org, once its available.
 * Appreciate your feedback!

 * Hello there,
 * Thanks a lot for your reply!
 * I agree that this will be a very nice to be added in private messaging system
   because right now a user must login each time in order to see if there is a new
   message from another user…it is a bit annoying.
 * So it would be nice to include email notification with private messaging system.

 * Regarding my request i have managed to solve it with the following way:
    I purchased
   yesterday your custom profile tabs add-on ([https://profilegrid.co/extensions/custom-user-profile-tabs-content/](https://profilegrid.co/extensions/custom-user-profile-tabs-content/))
   and then i added a new tab called “Request Finance/Cooperation”.
 * In the new tab i have added a new contact form 7 and i have managed to get dynamically
   the user profile email from profileGrid meta field using php coding in functins.
   php and Dynamically Set the Recipient (To) Email Address in Contact Form 7…..:)
 * Also, i have keep your private messaging system in my implementation because 
   it is a nice feature too:)
 * Kind Regards,
    Yiannis

 * I absolutely agree with [@ipomonis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipomonis/)
 * Something like this should definitely be high up on the requested features list.
 * The private messaging is a great feature to have, but without notifying the user
   about a new received message via email, it is absolutely pointless.
 * It just means that I miss every single message, because I’m not logged in, so
   I don’t even know that I’ve received a message. What’s the point of having a 
   messaging system like this?

 * Yes, we are keeping this task on priority and it will be part of our upcoming
   development schedule. While exact timeline for its release is difficult to provide
   at this stage, 3 to 4 weeks is realistic enough projection.
