PM "outbox"

Post by StolenFox »

Ok, i'm sure this should be obviuos to me but why is it when I send a PM it sits in the "outbox" instead of sending? Shouldnt they got directly into the "sent" folder instead of being held?

Thanks,

S.F.

It's in the outbox until the recipient opens it, IIRC.

Problem: "My messages are stuck in the outbox and I am panicking because I really HAVE to get this E28 part first! Why is it not in the sentbox?"

Cause: Your messages will stay in the outbox until the recipient has opened the message. There is no need to panic. Chances are next time that member logs in they will be alerted/notice a new private message and it will move to the sentbox once they open it.

ALSO, as long as a message is still in the outbox, you can check it and click the "Delete Marked" button and the recipient will never get the message.
