For people interested, here is a theme component that moves users’ PMs initial access from their page to the admin page with a new button (keeping the intent in the admin context): [Alternative User PMs Button For Admin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/alternative-user-pms-button-for-admin/260952). I hope that helps!
