PMs not sending

Post by jwealleans »

I've had a couple of PMs not go recently. i thought I was getting absent minded and just hadn't sent them. Then this morning I knew I'd sent one but it wasn't showing in my outbox.

Turned out my 'Sent Messages' box had filled up.

I had no notification that the message hadn't gone - can the software be made to warn, or clear down old messages after a length of time? I had never cleared my sent messages and some of them went back several years.

I haven't seen any such settings - my inbox often fills as well.

Hi,
I've just had the same. I cleared out the full box but still can't send. I've cancelled the original and re-composed but the email still sits obstinately in the Outbox. Help please!

Regards,

Vernon
