Just sent a PM and it gives me a sent time but is still in the out tray and has not transferred to the sent tray. Not sure whether it has gone or not! Will wait to see if there is a reply during the course of the day. Is this a bug

Miner does that too Steve, they seem to go but stay in the outbox for longer than normal and then disappear.

Might just be a quirk of the system.

It's not a quirk it's designed that way, PM stay in out box until they have been read by the recipient. Thus you know when it's been read and also gives you the opportunity to edit something if necessary before it has been read. Once read they move into sent box.

Good innit.

Now that is a good idea.

...and for reference please don't delete/remove any messages whilst still in Outbox or they disappear and send a message that the sent message has been deleted.
Confused? I was.........

For clarification:-

Inbox - where new messages arrive into
Outbox - where messages/replies you have written are listed until the recipient reads them
Sentbox - where messages/replies you have written AND have been read by the recipient are kept

Folders - Your own custom-named folders to store and file messages
Drafts - A place where messages you have written are stored if you save them rather than send them to someone

As John points out - you can delete a PM once it has been sent and before it is read (ie in your Outbox) but you cannot delete a PM once it has been sent except from your own Sent box. If you do this, your copy of the message will be removed but NOT the copy in the recipients inbox.

Hope that helps

Had wondered (but not worried) about this.

Nice feature.
