Howdy... sorry if this is covered somewhere but i couldn't find anything.
After sending someone a PM i discovered it is still in the Outbox. Does it stay there until the person receives it? Why isn't it in the Sent folder and how do we know we even sent it?

Thanks for your help!

Yes, messages you send will appear in the Outbox until the recipient reads it. Then it will move to the Sent Messages folder. It's done this way so that you have the chance to edit/delete the message before it is read. There is also a limitation to the number of messages that can be stored in each folder. Up above the message listing, there will be a display like this: [ 61/75 Messages (81%) ]. This indicates that there's 61 messages out of a maximum of 75 that's currently stored there. When the folder fills up, I believe that the oldest messages are discarded to make room for the newest one. I always use the Export as XML option and download the messages before this happens.
