Hi, I am trying to send a PM to somebody on VOGONS. After I compose the message it goes in to the Outbox but not in to the Sent Message box. I assume it is not being sent? Anybody know why? 😕

Submitted private messages are initially placed in your outbox. After the recipient reads the message it is moved from your outbox to your sent messages. It provides feedback that the message has been received, even if not replied to.

Everything is OK. I have one message in outbox too, but the receiver hasn't logged in since - like half a year 😕

Thanks, that makes sense. They might not be active any more so they haven't read it.
