Did my PM get through?

joea · 09-08-2005, 04:34 AM

I sent a PM to another member last night. A long post. I saw no response and checked my sentbox and it was not there.

My sentbox was 100% full.

My inbox is 25% full. I checked the others...and found my message in my outbox. Question is, did my message get through or not? How can I know? Shouldn't there be a warning if the sentbox or another is full?

There IS a warning, "the 100% indicator"

AFAIK: A full inbox or sentbox does not mean much. PMs will still be send and received. But the oldest ones will disappear to make room. Although I must admit I never tested this myself.

Normally when a message has disappeared from your outbox the other person has picked the message up, this does of course not mean he has actually spotted and read the message.

Thanks, just had a great patrol U-69 and Karl Popp just sunk two ships for 12163 tons. I'll wait til the gentleman has a chance to read my message.
