Private Messaging.

I have twice tried to reply to a message sent to me by tonyp.

The replies are in my outbox but I cannot see how to get them out of it to the "sent" box. Neither can I delete them.

HELP please. Many thanks

I had that same problem a while ago.
Apparently what happens is that a message stays in your outbox until the recipient opens it in his (or her) inbox.
It then goes to your sent box.
In other words it isn't considered "sent" until it has been received and opened.
Consequently I received two messages from you. They should both now be in your sent box.
And one reply in your in box.

It could be just a coincidence or he just got fed up with this board for some reason.
I sent him a PM on this board and then on the other board (soon after he went missing from this board) asking if he was the same Kev but he didn’t reply.

It's all very intriguing.
