PMs stopping in 'outbox' - need admin assistance

For some reason, my PMs are stopping at my outbox. I've cleaned out all extraneous email, tried to send from someone's profile, tried sending as a response...no dice. They just stack up in my outbox.

FAQs says:

ยป I cannot send private messages!
There are three reasons for this; you are not registered and/or not logged on, the board administrator has disabled private messaging for the entire board, or the board administrator has prevented you from sending messages. Contact a board administrator for more information.


Of course, I tried to PM an Admin and it is sitting in my outbox. So, I was forced to start a thread. Very sorry to have to waste anyone's time this way.

I think that they stay in the Outbox until the intended recipient reads them. At that point, they leave your Outbox.

Hmmmm...

That's a distinct possibility. I'll give it time and see if that is the case.

Many thanks!

I need to slow down and be more patient between shots. Got it!

You could always use the "waiting time" to put your location in your profile ;-)
