Blocking all private messages. Possible?

[MooseTrap]

Is it possible to opt out of receiving private messages completely? I think I can block a poster who has already sent me a PM but I'd like to be able to block everyone.

I've not had a particular problem with unwelcome PMs it's just that I don't won't to receive any.

Thanks for the quick reply. . I've looked and I've looked but I can't find an opt out box. I'm on the desktop site but I've also checked the app.

My idea where I should look?

Click on Settings - it's towards the top right of your Inbox. That's where the tick box is.

Sorry - that would be My Mumsnet (top right of page)> My Inbox (in drop down) > Settings.

Got it! I can't believe I missed it

Thanks

Well done.

(Sometimes, it's only easy to find when you already know where it is.)

If you send a PM to someone who has blocked all PMs I assume you would never know? You would just think they were ignoring you or didn't want to reply?

Sometimes PMs are sent for nice reasons.

You get something coming up, Sparkling, which indicates that the member has elected not to receive private messages. (I'm afraid I can't remember the precise wording.)

Oh do you? That's good.

Weeeellllllll - I recall coming across it during Jeffreygate. (I forget the circumstances.) I'm assuming both that my memory is correct and that they haven't changed it since.
