Title: forum lost my private "send" messages
Post by: Nostalgiac on July 22, 2009, 08:51:22 PM

Probably more for Wayne....

I seem to have lost all PM mails in "sent" - in fact just send one... and it simply did not get into my "sent" folder ?

Is this a forum-bug ?
And... any chance of getting them restored ?

cheers

I didn't realize the messaging system saved sent messages, mine never seem to go into the Sent folder.

that's the point.. there is a "sent" folder... but it's empty :/

I send some msg with info I thought would be safe ... but it wasn't

The old forum did this fine

I think it's an option in the general configuration for the site.

Obviously, this being an Amiga user site, the messaging system mirrors Exec. When you PutMsg() to someone else, you don't get it back until they ReplyMsg() it ;)

Check User CP -> Edit Options -> Tick box for "Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default"

Thanks Tony.  Since no one bothered to message or e-mail me, I hadn't seen this.
