possible lost private message? - Aquarium Advice

papa_bear_21 · 06-13-2007, 08:51 PM

I sent a private message, and it was shown in the outbox. I refreshed my browser, and it said it needed to resend the information, and if I wanted to retry, I answered yes. Well, now my message shows nowhere, not in the outbox or sent messages area. did I lose it?

I dont know quite what you did there, but for future reference, the items will show in the outbox until the person you send it to, reads it. Then it will show as "sent".

Then when they delete it the message goes away from both boxes.

The recipent likly deleted it.

ok, that makes sense...although, it never made it to the sent box, and they replied to it....I dunno, but it made it there, jus disappeared...LOL

They replied and deleted your message. Some folks like a clean inbox with only things that need attention. Since they repiled they likly just hit delete to clear the inbox since the message in their mind had been delt with.
