I removed the default user and main menus and replaced them with a block from the myMenu module so that I could have custom internal links and remove some of the options my users don't need.

The downside to this is that when a user has a waiting private message there is no indication in the menu. I would like to be able to have the number of messages waiting be displayed beside the link to their inbox, or to bold the inbox menu item when the message is waiting. My feeling is is that there is a Smarty tag out there that will do this for me.

Alternatively, if there was a way to add another block whose only purpose was to inform of inbox status, that would be fine too.

All ideas on this appreciated.
