I'm making a PM-system on my site. And I want to know ultimate db schema.

I have always just used only 1 table. But my users have started complained that the messages in their outbox suddently dissapers =D Thats because if the other users deletes it, the one who sent it wont see it to.

So im thinking of making another table with the same fields

So im thinking something like this:

privmsgs

id | to | from | subject | message | date
--   --   ----   -------   -------   ----
1    76   893    blabla.   blabla.   20100404

sent_msgs

id | to | from | subject | message | date
--   --   ----   -------   -------   ----
1    76   893    blabla.   blabla.   20100404

Whatya think?

Sorry for my bad english
