I'm wondering what "PM" stands for - some kind of message, it seems, but what's the "P"?

Private message. Like email for a message board.

Thanks, Malisa.
BTW, I was going to ask who to write to to find out why my name wasn't showing up at the bottom of forum pages as a "user browsing this forum" when my name suddenly appeared - but now my name has disappeared - so, do you know who I can ask about this? Thanks.

Someone who has a better answer may happen along, but I think it just has to do with lag time, when you refresh a screen and such. Mudie or xraymd may know more, but that's the best I've been able to figure out on the boards like this that I've run.
