Hi emjay.

Don't worry. They show as being in your outbox until they are opened at the other end.

I've had one in my outbox for a few months now, as the recipient hasn't been on the site since I sent it!

Emjay, check that you weren't entering the person's name in the subject box by mistake..

When sending a PM you have to click on where it say "Select a member" and then choose who you want to send it from the list - multiple recipients are allowed.

Another way is to set up a list of "Friends" and then choose one from that list - it is quicker that way if you intend PMing someone a lot. The friends system on here does not work the same as on the "old" P&O forum - on here each member can create their own list and they are not reciprocated with the other member.

You aren't the first to make that mistake, and I doubt you'll be the last. :)

Emjay ... we've all done it :lol:

Just another little thing that you may not have come across yet, if you post and someone posts at the same time a message comes up to say and then asks if you still want to submit the post and you have to press submit again, I thought initially we had the ( P&O syndrome ) ie: missing posts :lol:

I now wait until I see the message .. posted successfully but I still get caught out occasionally :o
