Silly question from relatively new user

Post by iowa67 »

OK, if I am in the wrong place with this question, please feel free to flog me.
My question is this, why do my outgoing PMs seem to sit in the outbox for so long? I sent one yesterday as a reply to another member and a day later, it is still in my outbox, not sent.
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help in this matter.

It stays in the outbox until it has been opened by the reciever. It is sort of a way to account for people getting your messages, but also it is made so you can edit the message as long as it is unopened. Once the message has been opened and removed from your outbox it can no longer be edited.

It will be in there until the person you sent it to looks at it.
