Not sure if this is just a quirk of the software or what....
but: if you're trying to hold a conversation with multiple recipients in the private messaging system: it's not possible to do a "reply all" AND "quote the previous message" at the same time. You can do one or the other, there is a "Reply All" button which populates the Recipients list with all the participants, but doesn't quote the previous message; and there's a "Quote" button, but that only adds the original sender of the quoted message to the recipient list, and you then have to add the other recipients manually. It doesn't seem possible to do both at the same time, which makes things a tad awkward.
Just wondering if this is something that just isn't in the phpbb software, or possibly an option buried somewhere?
