How to PM successfully?
Hi,
New to forum and have a question on PMing. When I attempt to PM a member I notice that overwhelmingly my messages appear in my OUTBOX, but not in my SENT folder. Of nine PMs only one appears in SENT (and the member replied so for me that equals a successful sent PM) while the other eight appear in my OUTBOX. I don't want to spam any member more than one time with a PM, so I'm wondering is this normal? Do PMs sit in OUTBOX or are they moved to SENT if they're successfully sent?
Any advice is appreciated!
I'm trying to request the subscriber forum password, btw.
Cheers!

They will sit in the 'outbox' until they are read.
So those (8) messages have not yet been opened by the recipients.
It's kind of a nice feature once you get used to it.
edit: there is no password or secret knock either, once you went Gold you should have access.

Oh wow - then one user has six PMs in their INBOX.
But thanks so much for telling me why they appear there - that's very good to know, and now I'll not resend multiple times! lol

I'm not positive on this....but I think you can open your outbox and delete the duplicates. :thumb:

Ah, but my little snafu did increase site traffic to a record high, so...'sit on it, Potsie!' :p

Re: How to PM successfully?
This is correct. The recipient will still see that you sent them a PM, but it will say it was deleted by the sender.Llagoud wrote:I'm not positive on this....but I think you can open your outbox and delete the duplicates. :thumb:
Re: How to PM successfully?
I didn't know that either....

Contrary to popular belief, you CAN fix stupid - it's just illegal.

Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by stupidity.
