Private message stuck in Outbox?

Post by acensor »

This is for a moderator or administrator I guess.

I recently got a private message... Pilot wanting some purchase tips on a Tecnam he's about to purchase. He PM'ed to me because I had purchased one about 2 years ago.

I spent an hour writing up some detailed things that I wish someone had told me back than.

Although the system said my message had been sent when I clicked "submit" I see the composed reply in the outbox, but not in the SENT folder.
Being unsure if it was actually sent, I recomposed it as an original PM (not a "reply" to him) and clicked submit and again it said "successfully sent" but now (at least five minutes ago when I looked) I have two of my composed messages to him in the Outbox but not in "sent."

So HAS it been sent? And if not, how can I get my reply to him.

Thanks for any help.

Ah! Thanks. Mystery solved.
That's very different behavior than in normal email clients. There if you see something in your outbox it means it has not yet been sent.
