Title: sending messages on here
Post by: Lewo on January 30, 2019, 02:21:18 pm

I sent a couple of messages on here last night but they're not showing in my sent folder so I've no way of knowing if they've made it?

Is it the system or just my account?

Maybe the site admin(s) can confirm, but I don't think Sent Items populates until the message has been read.  It's kind of like iMessage, less the 'Delivered' bit!  So if your message appears in Sent items, you know it's been read.

Ok ta, inbox is showing all messages received over the years but nothing is showing at all in sent folder.

when you send a pm there's a check box at the bottom for "save a copy in my outbox"
