eugenesaxe, clean out your box!

I tried to send a PM again, but it bounced, again. Your PM box is full. Try to delete some old ones. If you think its empty, change the range to 'from beginning'. Or just raise the limit for all users

This is what I PM'd:

Yeah, the limit is set to 70, which is the default for vB. I figured I shouldn't increase it because that may eat up a lot of megabytes in the long run, so users are forced to delete unimportant private messages.

Anyway, I can change your username for you if you want me to. Please let me know.

Shine on,
Paulo

I was actually going to post about this. It says my inbox is full, but when I check it, it's empty. I can't find any messages anywhere on it.

I should say it says this at the bottom of the page:
(You have 0 unread messages and 162 total messages in all your folders.)

You may have to search further--I think there are places where you may have old messages still stored.

I was thinking the same thing FW, but I get this message:

"There are no messages to display in this folder for this time period."

So again,

OK, when you get into your PM box, make sure you're showing all messages from the beginning; there should be a drop-down menu where you make that choice.

And also check your "Sent Messages" folder, by default all of your sent private messages are stored there and they count toward the 70-message limit. Don`t forget to show messages since the beginning, as FloydWright mentioned.

Shine on,
Paulo

D'OH!! It was the "Sent Messages" box. It's all fixed now. Thanks for the help guys.:grin:

Steep learning curve, isn't it?

If any of you wants to change my name to 'tam', i'd be very much obliged

btw, the puke icon won't work since its :puke: , and :p is already another icon so it comes out as

Thanks for letting me know about the puke issue (this sounds funky). It`s been fixed now. I`ve just updated your username as you requested as well.

gracias, paulo

If you send a PM, and that person's inbox is full, is the pm you sent lost forever, or does it register once the person empties their inbox? Thanks....

I don't really know, PW...you may have to use the "send an e-mail" feature to let the person know to clear their inbox. At least, that's how someone let me know mine was full, once.

Yes, it automatically sent an email, but I am just curious to know, if I will have to rewrite the message or not.....hmm.....

That I don't know...
