That is the simplest solution, but it assumes the other person's inbox hasn't also become full, and it's not an action the person trying to send the PM can take. That person just has to wait or forget it.
But to be clear, I did not suggest the separate thread as the best solution to the temporary communication problem between the PMers; rather, I thought it might be a method for keeping the "empty your inbox posts" off the other threads. Those types of posts are probably inevitable bc it's frustrating to have messages bounce back.
The full inbox problem is likely to persist even among regulars who have figured it out, because it requires a little bit of attention to keep one's inbox clear and ready to receive messages.
