PM out box does not empty

Post by mbouse »

why do PM messages stay in the outbox? how do i actually send PM's except "send message" ??

i have stuff in the outbox for DAYS and have no idea if they were sent, or if there is a problem, or if i am doing something wrong...... or what!

help.

I was just wondering the same thing Mike. The sent messages aren't going to the "sent" folder. But they are noted sent with date in the outbox. I know they're going out, I've gotten responses on em.

to empty the box you have to scroll down to the jump to box, switch it to delete, then pick the messages you want to eliminate

i guess i am leary of deleting them because i was not positive they had been actually sent. none of them REQUIRED a reply, and no reply has been seen, so i am not positive they were actually received.

i am still having issues with private messages. I make a reply and the reply sits in my outbox, never moving to the sent box.

how the heck do i know if the other guy ever gets my reply? ? ?

Now I have the same problem. What do I do? Are they actually being sent?

I don't see the trouble, it tells you what time the message was sent. I believe a copy of the message stays there for a specified number of days, then is deleted. Mine seems to work just fine

I'm doing it the same way as Mark. After you "submit" and the page refreshes, it is labled "sent at" with date and time. I've sent out quite a few and never had one not go through.
It was pointed out to me by a fellow member that being as this is a 3rd party mail system, anything sensitive I still use normal Email.

Thank you, that clarifies things nicely. Being new to the group and not being too hot with computers, I was just a little concerned. Thanks again.
