The private messaging feature is available by visiting [http://www.insanejournal.com/privatemessages.bml]. This is a feature that allows you to send private messages to any InsaneJournal user.

If you receive any new messages, a popup window will appear if you visit any InsaneJournal page (excluding users' journals, etc.). It will say "You have a new private message. Do you want to view it now?". From there, you can click "OK" to automatically go to [http://www.insanejournal.com/privatemessages.bml].

Any messages you receive will appear and be stored at [http://www.insanejournal.com/privatemessages.bml] until you delete them. From here, you can see if the messages are New (marked with an "X"), who they're From, the Subject, and the date when it was Sent to you.

All Free Patient and Early Inmate account users will have a storing limit of 100 messages.
