I just discovered that a PM I thought was sent 3 or 4 days ago is still sitting in the Outbox; do I need "School of the Boat" to re-qualify on PM's? There is no button to push for "send". Now there are two messages in the outbox since I replied to another shipmate trying to help me solve this dilemma. Don must have me blocked as a "spammer"

Doc,
The message stays in your outbox until the recipient logs on the board. He may be viewing the board without signing on and may not know that you have sent him a message.
When he does sign on, It will tell him there is a message waiting for him, though it is small and hard to see up in the upper left by the logon welcome screen.
You can set your BBS email to send you an email when someone sends you private mail so you don't have to be logged on to be notified.....and when you get the email notification, it will provide a link to the private message, asking you to log on if you aren't currently logged on.
Hope that helps.

I was thinking of the other bbs...in which the message stays in the outbox until the recipient logs on....maybe the same on this bbs.
however, you can go to settings and have an email notification sent to you when someone else sends a private message. Go to Control Panel in the upper right section of the BBS screen.

May I also interject here, you usually receive an email that tells you there is a PM waiting for you on the board, is this not also true? |

Only if you have toggled it in the control panel. I am not sure what the default is. I had it set on Rontini's and a few minutes ago I toggled it on here.

The individual I sent the message to was logged on this morning and I was wondering if he had seen the message; that's when I discovered it was still in my outbox. I just checked again and it's still there so he logged on and then logged off without ever seeing it which explains why he didn't reply; I think?

That little number, even being red, is easy to miss. Throwing a rock or using a cattle prod works much better. |

You're logged on but my reply to your message is still in my Outbasket; No big deal but it sure is puzzling. The Webmaster must be spending long hours trying to solve this major problem;
yeah, right
