POSSIBLE PROBLEM WITH PRIVATE MESSAGES

Unread post by steve-e »

I'm just investigating. It seems that some private messages are getting lost in the system. I have to say that's the first time I've ever known it happen, usually it's people with message boxes full not releasing new ones (there's a 250 limit).

If you have a full message box, it may be worth emptying a few out just in case.. but I have a feeling there's something else wrong

Still in outbox means it hasn't been read yet.

Once the message has been read it moves to sent, till then it sits in outbox . This way you can see if it had been opened at the other end yet . This works different to email and catches everyone.

The problem seems to be messages not showing in the inbox the other end.

I've just had it happen to me. There's a [1] showing on my inbox that says there's a message unread and I know I was sent one at 18:04 but it's not showing in my inbox. I can't see any unread messages.

I really can't see what is doing it, i've purged the cache, altered message settings slightly to kick it into gear. Will have another go...

Don't call me a geek but I'm not entirely sure 'the cloud' is a real cloud. #Justsaying
