You hit the nail on the head there. Notification of Spring Training is not a personal message. That is why there is an Autoplay until spring training option so you can sim until that day and have the game stop. However, the game does not stop to notify you that it has started when you sim to another date. Same thing goes for the regular season. The game assumes that if you choose to pick another date to sim until, then you are aware of the date spring training and/or regular season occurs. So, this really is not a bug, but is working as intended. I would suggest posting this on the Wishlist for 2007 if you would like other events to stop the game from simming when you have personal message notification on. Thanks.
