BERIGAN Posted August 27, 2005 Report Posted August 27, 2005 I was going to pull up a Sent PM the other day, and I noticed that nothing newer there than April. Are automatic sent Pm's auto deleted, or did I manage to change this all on my own? I don't see a way to change settings for this. Quote

brownie Posted August 27, 2005 Report Posted August 27, 2005 The introduction of the new server has been excellent except for that particular point. When anybody PM'ed with the former setup, the message went directly to the person's send message file. If you did not want to keep it, you just deleted it. Now when you PM, you type your message then before sending it you have to make sure you store it before sending it away. If not, there is no trace of the message having gone away I must confess I do not automatically store it. Just forget to go through the procedure from time to time Any way of going back to the former setup on this? All sent PMs would be automatically stored and we just delete those we don't want to keep.

I actually never noticed the new function mentioned by Hans. Quote

brownie Posted August 27, 2005 Report Posted August 27, 2005 Well yes, the good thing about it is you can send any kind of insults and forget them in the moment you hit "send" - never happened... ← Ubu, please PM me with a list of insults I sent you recently. All I remember is 'Dirty Kraut!'. Forgot to keep them in my sent items folder. Need to renew my repertory. I'll make sure to store the next ones Quote

That may exceed the storage capacity allocated to each Board Member. Quote
