Hi folks,
is it possible to place a page on top of Special:Emailuser for each user that allows e-mails? What I think is a page with a given special name that may be edited (possibly by owner and admins only, as .css and .js subpages), may be watched and is used to display a message to those wanting to send a mail. E.g. "Please write me only if it is confidential, otherwise use my talk page" or "May blue death harm your computer twice a day if you don't supply a proper subject" or "I usually read mails every second Friday of months, be patient". Just in case the developer team suffers from lack of great new ideas.

Yes, it is. The functionality is just the same as for custom editnotices. For example at deWP this was activated two days ago (http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Emailpagetext&diff=1...).
Of course such simple subpages don't require any edit privileges, as .js/.css-pages need.

Great! So I have just invented cold water, as we say in Hungary. On the other hand, my question was put in the right time. :-) So this is an adminwork, and does not require help of developers. Thank you very much!
