O/T Private message issues

Can't seem to get messages to send. I now have three in my outbox. How do they send? I pushed the "submit" button. They are in outboxland with only "delete" as an option. Am I missing the obvious?

Ducks, try Lumoswine.com and contact us. Thanks,

-Dai

RE: O/T Private message issues

Hello Dai,

I think that once you have submitted your PM that's it. Your PM message will arrive at destination once the reciving person opens the P3 site.

I hope I am correct, that is how it works in some other forums.

It's a feature of the system. They stay in your outbox until the recipient picks it up. Then it moves to the "Sent" box. That, to me, is a nice feature which lets me know whether the recipient has received it yet.

Most folks don't notice the little red number notification at the upper right of the screen. That is one of the reasons that I suggest to everyone that they go into their "My Profile" and select the "Yes" setting for an email notification when you get a PM.

Only when the recipient actually opens the PM. See my other post.

Re: O/T Private message issues

Thanks a lot for the clairification. It didn't look like it was leaving my computer. I like the feature of being notified via email that someone has sent me a PM. The little red notification is as you said, Dutch, easily missed. Someday I might catch up to the computer age.

I sent Ducks a pile of attempts. Whoops.

Thanks guys,

-Dai

If they are still in your oubox, you can delete them; and the recipient won't get them.

No problem.  I had the same misunderstanding (and did the same thing) the first time I used it.
