You were right the first time. You ran out of room.

How about something to indicate there's mail in my inbox without having to click on the mail folder

How about using EOM?? Anyways, I dunno if you're using another browser

With a totally different view, or what; but I can be absolutely anywhere on the site and as long as I'm logged in I get a little message when there's any mail. It's over on the right, under my handle and clicking it takes me to the inbox.

Not sure how you missed it?

I tried to write EOM, but apparently I ran out of space.

Actually, you're correct, it is my browser. I almost never scroll over to see what's on the right. Thanks.

There are only so many character spaces in the subject line. He ran out of room.

I just tested it and his message used every available space. There isn't even room for a simple "e."

Not sure what a browser would have to do with character space in the subject line box.  
Anyway I hope you figured out the PM notification.

That only works if you check your email

I forgot to mention that because I almost never check that email account. When I signed up for TER many years ago, I created an email just for that purpose. I have actually done that for most sites I belong too. Anyway, I check that email account 3 or 4 times a year and purge hundreds of emails from TER telling me I got a new PM, or one of my favorites have been updated, or they received my problem report, or "contact us" feedback. Lol.

I just use my hobby email account for that.

I find it easier than logging into TER to find out if I have any messages.  

I mentioned it because the OP asked for alternatives to checking his PM inbox to find out if he has any new PMs. It's another option, but obviously not a good one for someone like yourself who almost never checks the email account linked to TER.
