I am curious if anyone else has experienced this strange phenomena :-D. I have messaged a couple of people here on AP over the last month, since registering. Two of my messages just disappeared (e.g., sent but never went and simply disappeared). btw, I know about the check boxes for the outbox (found that on-off switch).
Has anyone else experienced this? Maybe one of the facilitators can speak to this?
Just wondering if it's my imagination, a gremlin or maybe one of those "scamps" mentioned by Frank Kepple.
Well, I can't say this forum is perfect... we're a major version behind, but have issues when we try to upgrade.
Do you mean you had copies of your messages in your inbox/outbox, and now they're gone?
Thanks for follow up Ryan.
No, the messages apparently did not get there. However, each time I sent a 2nd message (and clicked the save to the outbox button) and it got there. I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem.
If I just need to remember to click outbox button each time, then I will do that from now on (which I think I will do anyway).
So you want it to save a copy of all PM's you send to your Outbox folder?
You can set that by default by going to your profile and selecting "Personal Message Options" on the left side menu... then on the next screen check the box for "Save a copy of each Personal Message in my outbox by default."
:)
@xanth
I just found out that the person(s) I messaged did actually receive the lost messages (e.g., they were not lost). I have made the setting changes which you noted above. Thanks for your help and consideration.
The 'Kitten of Terror' strikes again! :-o
