Problems sending PM - messages won't leave outbox?

thebetterman

Anyone else see this? I've got 3 messages in my outbox that don't seem to be going out, the oldest is from the 25th.

any help would be great.

thanks,

norm

that means the recipient has yet to read the message

i like the answer, although it doesn't make complete sense.

thanks norm

once the recipient has read the message, it'll go into your sendbox instead.

look in the technical thread. this topic was talked about there and norm's comment seems accurate.

btw - hi norm!

it does if you think about it.


you write a message and hit submit.
message goes into your outbox - simultaneously goes in recipient's inbox. it will sit in your outbox, and their inbox with a green dot next to it indicating a new message, until they actually OPEN said message. once recipient opens your message, it will then go into your sent box....and remain in their inbox, but now with a blue dot next to it indicating they opened it. your outbox is simply a 'limbo' area for your written messages, and you will know if/when the recipient reads it, b/c it will then move.....

i know it was!
i was simply trying to be 'helpful'.....spell it out, since the OP said thanks, but didn't seem to fully understand.
besides, brevity is not my strong suit. unless of course i am telling ya to go feck yerself, then i am direct and to the point. haha.

actually, this is.

You hit send, and once someone else reads it, it's gone from the outbox.
