When I get email notifications about PMs/thread responses, it tells me to go to WP.
My mobile phone's email uses a web browser that won't handle this forum.

Please include the option to have the actual content in those emails. Thanks.

Sorry, that's not possible.
The whole forum is built around web-based postings and effectively, you'd be asking the forum software to include your mobile in the thread.

Is it not possible to update your browser to something a little more capable?

Some more modern forums give the option to include PM contents in the email notifications. This can be handy as is saves having to login just to pick up a PM. Maybe this functionality will be included in the next version of WP?

^^ Just had a quick peek (footling about with the current version of phpBB at home) and it doesn't seem to allow that.
