Marie-
It was working for me on 9/10, at least, which was the last time I sent one. Has the user you are sending it to logged in and looked for your PM? Do they have their notifications turned on and/or were expecting it? I have noticed that PMs on this forum stay in the Outbox until they are read, then they go to your Sent Items folder. If the recipient has their notification of PMs off (or has not checked their email lately) and has not logged in to the forum, they may not even know it is there.

VERY good to know. I have not trusted PM for awhile and try to get email addresses. A PM didn't send once, a long time ago, and now everytime I see it just sitting in the Outbox, I assume there is a problem.

Ya, I think that's so you can edit or delete them still, up until the time the recipient actually opens and reads the message.

Hi Marie,

I just got back, and saw the message. Any question with Rennsport I can help with?
