Well, i've got a couple of Messages that have important text in it, for example a big list of suggestions or something like that. Instead of Copy-Pasting the whole Msg, wouldn't it be possible to implement something like a ''favorite message'' Folder, with about 20 or 30 free slots?

As far as I know, you could alternatively copy and paste the URL (or just the number that changes there) of the message somewhere (like in Profile -> Edit -> Personal -> My Notes). Even after deletion, you should be able to access it under the same URL. That might not be exactly what you're looking for, though.

I suggest the ability to lock messages is needed.

I, for one, simply keep the important messages in my inbox. If they are really important, I save the content somewhere else as well, but I mainly keep the important ones in while deleting all other after some time.

Well, the thing is, when my Inbox and Sent Box is full, i want to be able to just delete messages without having to think that i might delete something important. That's why a ''Favorite Message'' feature would be good. Or maybe just something that let's us ''mark'' the message as important, so that we see it when we delete messages.

Don't wait for the inbox and outbox to fill up, delete the messages you don't find important right away. Keep just one from one conversation, either in inbox or outbox. That is because you can always check the messaging history and see everything you've sent and received.

Well as have been said, you can just save the links to the important messages and then delete them. You can view them later indefinitely even after they were deleted as long as you remember the links and have access to you profile

Sure, that's a possibilty, but guys, let's not forget that this is a suggestion thread after all :) Im just suggesting something, that in my opinion could make MAL a little bit better and easier to use. Im saving the important messages somewhere else right now, but if this feature would be implemented, it would make it easier :)

And we know too well how suggestions are treated here:
