Message for Ciarán re problems with private messages

Post by colinxm » Thu Jan 06, 2011 4:22 am

Hi Ciarán, when you have a minute, any chance you can have a look see why I don't appear to be receiving all of my private messages ? I also have replies to messages I have received sitting in my outbox but no apparent way to send them... :cry:

Outbox messages not being sent is also the norm for me, don't know if it's a wider problem?

Messages stay in Outbox untill the reciver has picked the message up in their own inbox...

so the recivers arent reciving the sender message ...

Hi guys,

Paul is quite correct, the default behaviour is that the message sits in Outbox until the recipient actually reads it, though if they're staying there permanently despite the other person definitely having seen the message, then there's a problem.

Could both of you send me a PM? I'll check the database and make sure its doing what it should and marking the messages as read when that actually takes place.

Cheers

Ciarán
