Sending PM's
Hi, I'm trying to find more information about the private message system. I sent a member a message and it is in my "outbox" not in the sent messages folder. Was my message sent? (It does show a sent time). And if it was sent why is it not in the "sent" folder? Is the PM feature disabled for new members? Thank you.

It stays in the 'out box' until the person opens and reads it.

Tinmansgirl,
Also be aware to look at the person you are trying yo contact...look at their cover page to see when the last time they accessed the WALAKES.COM. site was.
You may PM a person, or say something on their thread, but then they haven't even been back to he website for 3 weeks.
Even though their email is supposed to tip them to your PM, you never quite know how dialed in people are to their communications.

Re: Sending PM's
That is true. I sent a PM to one person last Sept. This past winter I had to PM him again to read the PM so it would disappear from the out box. And the guy was online often.

Re: Sending PM's
I get confused if I've sent a message or not, it might be a great pm system we have but I find it annoying.

Awesome! Thank you, now I understand it better.
I will not send anyone PMS.
The person I PM has been on today. I'm sure they will see it eventually. lol

Re: Sending PM's
^^^^^This is how it works. You can send a private message to any registered member but can't make them read it. It will stay in your "outbox" until they do.Amx wrote:It stays in the 'out box' until the person opens and reads it.

Re: Sending PM's
Ve have ways of making them read... or not. I checked, and there's nothing in the outhouse at the moment.
