Private Message Length Limit

Would there be any way to have private messages be able to be as long as thread posts?

The moderated debates thing I would like to run becomes difficult when full-length posts can’t be traded behind the scenes first.

TubaDiva changed the PM message limit from 1000 characters to 5000, so go ahead and try again.

Wow, thank you. This and the mailbox going to 100 is a big help.
