...it's certainly possible to give you up to 100 posts at a time... I've had a tough time deciding how exactly to implement it without adding complexity to the interface (any suggestions are welcome!) Download Messages Unread Read Both [default = Unread] Range: #-------- to #-------- [defaults = Last Message-99 to Last Message] Notes: You can set the parameters according to server considerations. For example, the user may select both read and unread, "1 to 10,000", but you might just allow posts 1 to 100 to be written to a file. Just be aware that the next logical request would be for an option that allows someone to download messages by person, i.e. all my own posts. I suppose you could add a similar dialogue to the profile page. Hope this helps! - Jeff
