Problems with PM
Problems with PM
Hi,
is it only me or is there some problem with PM's?
If I answer a PM, I get after 'sent' a timeout. When looking into my Outbox, the message is just sitting there, but it seems that it won't make its way to the Sentbox

Isn't it supposed to remain in the outbox until the recipient has read it?Schlowski wrote:When looking into my Outbox, the message is just sitting there, but it seems that it won't make its way to the Sentbox

Don't think so, but what do I know about the forum soft...
Normally a post is put into Outbox and sits there until some automated process takes it and sent it to the recipient. Then it will be moved to the Sentbox. At least this is what every mailer knon to me is doing.
Otherwise this wouldn't be a Sentbox but a Readbox... Sorry, couldn't resist this
And just as a prove-of-concept: Now that the PM is working again, the mail just rushes through the Outbox and into the Sentbox and I'm sure the recipient hadn't enough time to read it.

Guess what.... I just set one PM to myself and one to "aneurysm" (just took someone who isn't browsing the forum right now). Both PMs got stuck in the outbox. I could see the PM to myself in my inbox. When I had read it, it went from the outbox to the sentbox, while the PM to aneurysm still remains alone in the outbox. So I think it is just like I said....

It seems to work in the same way on the "folkvagn" forum... The folder names are maybe a bit misleading as Björg said, but I think the function is nice so you can see if someone has read the message...
