I Think it stays in their outbox until they read it?
Maybe Dave will chime in and confirm this?

Hi Oldslotman

Nigel are right .(Hi Nigel :occasion5: )

When you send a PM ,the message go first in the "outbox" folder .
And stay in this folder until the guy read it !

So ,now ,the guy must to know that you have send a message .
Two solutions:
-If the guy have the option "Notify me on new private messages" on YEs in his contro panel ,he will received an Email for tell him that a PM waiting him on the website. Sure, if he don t give an available Email address ; he will never received the info. #-o
-if he guy don t have the option on YES , you need to wait that he come on this website and see that he have a new message ! You can wait a long time before than the guy read it and the message will stay in the "outbox" folder.

If your message is no longer in the "outbox" ,the guy read it !! Very useful !!!! :-"

Now , how to make "YES" for this option :

Guy need to go to "User control panel" , " board preferences" , "Edit global settings" ,"Notify me on new private messages" , and clic YES !!!

For be sure that you have the good Email in your profile : go to "User control panel" , " board preferences" ,"Profile" , " edit account settings" , "email address".

Now , oldslotman ,if you want to be sure about your PM box , You can send me a PM for make test ! if no reply from me , post here and Dave will try to find a solution !!
