How long before I can send PMs.

Post by dkbryant »

how long will PM's sit in my Outbox before being sent. I've had one there for a few hours, but try as I might I cant get it to ever show up in the "Sent" folder after I hit submit.

Something I'm missing.

Dan, they sit in the 'Outbox' for a while. The PM's are sent almost right away, the system takes a little bit to transfer over to the 'Sent' folder.

Send me a test PM and I will reply once I get it.

I believe what happens is the message stays in the outbox until the recepient opens it, then it shows up as sent.

Mike is correct. That's what happens when I PM members.

That is exactly right. It is done this way so that you know whether it's been received or not, and also to allow you the chance to delete the message if the recipient hasn't read it yet.
