Some of the links on this forum allow SMF, at no cost to you, to earn a small commission when you click through and make a purchase. Let me know if you have any questions about this.
Apologies we didn't mention to expect the reappearance of PMs. Unfortunately, in the data conversion process, the old system doesn't clearly flag deleted messages in the database (and they're never actually deleted out of the database). We erred on the side of caution and imported all of them so as to not lose any PMs during the move.
