The AUSubaru.com.au Forums

My PM's dont seem to be sending, after timing out while trying to send one, tryed again, seemed ok, but found it had gone to 'Outbox"
I realised my sentbox was full, so cleared it, however the pms are still going directly to the outbox and not registering as sent.

Are they sending? have i broken it?

Any divine assistence from the mods would be fantastic.

Thanks

Will

try putting this in general chat.. i think this section might be more for testing things?? i reckon ull have more sucess at the top of the forum

Well I reckon you won't, I'm guessing most regulars / moderators check out the "posts since last visit page" first. This is a fitting topic for the forum too, and we should be supporting the forum structure, not suggesting to people that stepping out of line will get better results. It won't.

Thank you Tim, thats why I put it in this section.

Still having no luck sending, recieving though.

u try n send me one.. ill send u one will. see if it works to us

I think PMs go to your outbox until the receiver reads them, then they move to your sentbox

actually.. thats sounds pretty accurate

Das was my theory as they move eventually from the outbox to sentbox

When you send a PM it goes to "Outbox", where the reciever can read it. Once it has been opened, the message then moves to your "Sent Items" box.

OK cheers that make sense, kind like a read receipt, never took any notice before, guess i was over taxing the dsl initially.

Out of intereset what happens when the outbox or sentbox are full, no go or does it override the oldest pm?

I believe you'll recieve an error message along the lines of "Unable to send message" or some such.
