Unable to send PMs

Hoping someone can help me with this as I've looked round my settings etc. but am still unable to fix this so must be doing something wrong :confused:

I was trying to reply to a PM I received via the site from another member but each time I submit the message, it just sits in my Outbox and doesn't appear to send or transfer to my Sent box.

So I thought I would message an Administrtor for help but that just sits in my outbox too! Getting a bit frustrated by it now so just wondered if anyone on here might be able to point me in the right direction? Any advice about this would be gratefully received :heart:

Hi I think the message sits there until the recipient opens it :heart: Sue

Don't worry WestLondonChick, PMs will sit in your Outbox until they are read by the recipient. It is only then that they will move to your Sent Items.

Hope that clears it up! :)

Well, if they haven't been read yet you can delete them and no-one will be any the wiser!

Click on the box on the right hand side of each PM you want to delete, scroll down to the bottom of the list and change the dropdown to show 'delete marked' and click on Go. :)
