And yet another one:

In the old si I could view all messages to me by clicking on Folders/To Me. This would give me a mix of PM's and public messages whether I had responded to the PM's or not (or deleted them from the Inbox).

In new SI (it seems):

1) I can't view a list of public messages to me unless I deliberately save them in a folder

2) Ditto for PM's

It's more work, but in the long run you get used to it and you are able to save what you (think you) want and it's permanent rather than falling off the edge after a while.

That's the thing about computers: new software takes a lot of getting used to and it is sometimes hard to tell how you will like it beforehand because a lot of thought probably went into it. Later on the reasoning (if there was any) becomes apparent.
