Lack of record of recent Sent Messages
« on: December 06, 2018, 02:48:28 AM »
Took me a while to find the "Sent Message" menu on the PM system but when I checked it I found only 2 old messages from several years back. I sent a bunch of PMs the last month but there's no record of them. ??? :?

By default saving sent messages is disabled.  You either do it piecemeal (there is a check box on the compose page to save a copy of the message), or go to your profile and select to have all sent messages saved.

I didn't know you can set that as a default in your Profile!  Just changed it.  Thanks!

OK, it's back.

I have replied to messages including the save, and can't find a 'sent messsages' dropdown anywhere, or any features under the user name regarding them....

I've got the inbox, but nowhere do 'sent messages' appear.   Where is it?

At least by reviving an old post you know I did look for a solution before I reflexively complain... :scared:

Look on the right hand side of your screen below the headers for a set of double arrows [ Guests cannot view attachments ] and click on it.

Thanks, that works fine, even if that is possibly the most non-intuitive solution available! :D
