nobody knows of any package?

Why not write your own between users, and use jQuery/Ajax for responses etc, that would be your best bet.

what do you mean? If I would not find a suitable messaging package I'll write by my own, but this is quite a big task, for the features I would like.

I used this for my last project. You can modify if a bit to fit your needs.

Hey fraserk,

thank you very much for the link. But how did you resolve it, that a user A (in a conversation with another user B) can delete messages without removing these messages for user B?

I hope you know what I mean :)

Usually you would add an attribute "deleted_by_sender" (bool) and "deleted_by_receiver" and set it to true if it's "deleted" by the sender / receiver. Then only show messages which aren't "deleted".

Yes, this is how I solved it..

I just started building a full featured messaging system, you can review it here: https://github.com/tzookb/TBMsg

I would be happy to get more help on best practices from the pro's.

Thanks!

sorry and this is the packgist url : https://packagist.org/packages/tzookb/tbmsg

You can check out my messaging system, it is similar to what you're doing, but it's built with core php: http://codecanyon.net/item/loginregister-script-internal-messaging/5440209
