sending messages on here
« 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.

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