Sorry, I disagree. Like a user I do not want the staff (or other users) see if I read or not my PM. We use discourse like a forum not like whatsapp or facebook. I want my (and their) privacy.

Like an admin I do not care if a user read a moderator’s PM. **It is their responsibility**. Let’s stop treating users as children.
