![]() 922 forum posts 332 photos | Thanks for your reply Bandersnatch. Sorry for the confusion, I'm really talking about those I sent. None, I might add, were of an urgent nature. However, with several PMs remaining in my 'Sent' box marked 'Unread', perhaps I should first alert the recipient in the M.E. public domain!? Of course it's the recipients choice to ignore/delete. Just wondering. Regards, Sam

If you have not selected to be notified you won't get one and will just have to look at the forum, this can be a reason why you are left with unread PMs as people who don't visit regularly or are just blind to the flashing envelope etc don't know they have a PM waiting. Personally I don't like a thread full of "PM sent" type messages though may use it for a new member who does not know their way around the site. |
