MessagesFacebook launched the New Messaging System around three months ago. Many of you may be currently using that. But then also I though of writing about this for the people who are not aware about the New Facebook Messages.

Facebook launched the new Messaging system with the intention to bring everything to the same place – chat data, messages and email. So the users does not have to always switch between browser tabs to check their latest emails. This new messages allows you to send and receive email from the Facebook account itself.

You email address will be on your public username:

For eg.

http://www.facebook.com/username (How to get Vanity URL for your Facebook Profile)

Email address: username@facebook.com

Facebook is slowly rolling out this feature to all its users. If you haven’t got this feature activated on your account you can request any of your friend who is currently using the same to invite you or you can even request Facebook for an invitation.

Procedure to Request an Invitation for the New Message from Facebook:

The new messages system gives special focus on messages from your friends. All the messages from your Facebook friends will go to your inbox rest of the messages i.e. from unknown or bulk messages will into the Other folder and the spam is hidden automatically.
