Problem with Private Messages?

#1 Post by t41user » Mon Dec 18, 2006 7:36 pm

I am trying to send another user a private message. The message remains in my outbox but does not appear in my sentbox. Am I doing something wrong? Is the message sent? Why doesn't the message appear in my sentbox?

I'd appreciate any help on this matter.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

It won't appear in your sent box until the it is opened by the receiver.

It stays in you "Outbox" until it is read, then it is in your "Sentbox". That way you can tell if it has been read or not.

Yes, it will still be in "your" outbox until the person who's in-box it is in opens their in-box and reads the message then it will move from your outbox into your sent box and will stay in the in-box of the other persons boxes. :D
