Default database question

I'm just starting to teach myself how to do server-side stuff and I'm working on a website where members will be able to send private messages to each other. I've never considered how this works under the hood before. Are all PMs stored in a single table from which a query retrieves messages for a specific user? Does each new member get their own database table created to store their PMs? What is the best way to implement a private messaging feature?
