PM Problems - Aquarium Advice

When I try to PM someone or reply to a PM the message just lays in my outbox and never gets sent. Messages I tried to send several days ago have not gone through. Any Ideas?

I could be wrong, but I think that means the message has not been read. PM me and see what happens.

They get sent. It just means the other person is not 'reading' them.

Since by default members recive PM's in their e-mail inbox as well as in the PM inbox with the full message text people dont have to go to the PM inbox to read a message. They only get moved from OUT to SENT once the person whom is to recive the message clicks on it to 'read' it from within the PM inbox.

Yes....if it is in your outbox that means it has not yet been read.

I got your PM and responded. It looks like everything is working as it should!
