It also lets users to download their inbox as a single XML file. vBulletin PM Reader is a free utility for managing your private messages in different vBulletin forums locally.

I developed vBulletin PM Reader for personal use. I used to receive many private messages from Barnamenevis.org users, but my Inbox folder could have had only 50 messages. I was looking for a way to keep track of all the messages I receive; therefore, I created vBulletin PM Reader. Later on, I thought there might be other people who have the same problem, so I published vBulletin PM Reader here.
Features:
vBulletin PM Reader is a Freeware and does NOT install any Ad ware or Spyware.

vBulletin PM Reader lets user to have different database files to store messages from different online forums.

Considerations:
vBulletin PM Reader needs Microsoft Jet Engine as database provider. MS Jet Engine is installed by MS Windows and MS Office installation packages, but if you are using an old version of Windows (e.g. Win95 or Win98), you should download and install MS Jet Engine from Microsoft website before using this software.
