Sorry to tie up bandwidth with this but can someone fill mein on PM's? I haven't been on a lot lately so maybe something changed and I just missed it. When I do a PM, my options after I have added the addressee and completed the message is to "preview" or "submit". There is no.... "send". When I click "submit" another page opens and beside the subject line it has "preview"..... (I didn't select preview) then below this, the message I just typed is displayed and would allow me to edit it again? Below this preview message..... (that I didn't want to preview) there is again the "preview" and "submit" buttons below that... when I hit submit again.... it appears in my "outbox" not in the sent box.

What the heck am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Mark

Not sure why you are getting the edit box once before it will go out.

Most of these PM boards will place the message in the out box where it stays until the addressee opens it then it is dropped from your outbox.

Thanks Cuz,
I didn't realize that. Not sure if it had changed or if I just never noticed it before.

As Cuz said,Messages, once sent sit in your outbox, unlike an E-Mail though, they stay there until they are read by the other party...
There are other boards I am on that don't do this but with this setup you can at least see if the message got through.
