Please bear in mind the no admins will ever see any PM's or responses on this system. There is one case in which an Admin might see a "response to a response" and that is what Lynn tripped over:
When you have email notification on for PMs, and you receive an email telling you that you have a PM, the email notification will say "DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL". But if you reply to the notification email despite the warning the email will go to "GT40s.com", a non-existant email address. This email will be collected by the Dead Letter demon. I look through the Dead Letter Office from time to time to see if there is anything I need to respond to there and found Lynn's emails.
So, the morale of the story is the PM system is safe from any outside influences or prying eyes, just don't respond to the email that says "DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL", and you'll be fine.
Thanks to Lynn for alerting me to this behavior because I'd never seen it before.
Best,
Ron
