It could be something I haven't come across yet, but I can't seem to send a pm to certain people. After writing out the message, I hit send and nothing happens. It stays on the screen but won't send the message. One did go through after several long minutes and much send button hitting. Hopefully people aren't getting a zillion of the same message; sorry if you have but I don't know now who has gotten them and who hasn't. HELP!  Huh?

where you sending them out one by one or using multiple recipients?

You might want to check your outbox to see which ones were sent.
If it's listed there, then I think it went through.

I wonder if their message boxes are full? Other than that, I don't know.

I PM'd you, just to check, and it seems as if it went through okay.

No they didn't show in the outbox. But the out box shows the ones that I had no problem with - meaning after hitting send- it went , off the screen. The ones not in the out box were the ones that just sat on the screen, no matter how many times I hit send. Thanks for the advice, I'll keep playing with it. Irish, I did clean out some of the old messages- maybe that will help.

Hi Snos, I use Safari. Think that's the problem?

Could be.. sometimes the browsers don't love the buttons. Wink

I find that once the button has actually been pressed, it wont let you press it a second time. So I don't think you have to worry about sending things more than once. Wink

I've never had a problem, and Safari is my browser of choice

 I'll play around and try a few different things- it's only a problem after composing a long message and have it not go through.
Maybe someone is trying to tell me I'm a little long winded?  Wink
