All WordPress forum plugins don't have build-in private messages. There are 7-8 plugins and they just a forum plugins for forum discussions. Only stand-alone forum softwares comes with PM.

I'm really sorry but there is no SMF PM to wpForo PM migration solution yet. You can contact our pro-support for paid services: https://wpforo.com/pro-support/#migration
