haha...I've been bitching about this forever. I think Rufus told me that they move out of the outbox and into sent once the addressee opens them.

send me one and we'll test the theory...

I'm notorious for missing the PM notice on the toolbar. But, they do show to be there, regardless if I open them or not. That's my New Year's resolution, to "pay attention to PM's". :D :D :D :D

Got it, read it, replied to it...see if it dropped off the outbox to sent.

I get the email notifications for incoming messages. My problem is stuff hangs up in the outbox. I’ve got one I sent to Christopher that’s been in there for over a month.

Okay Jon...my return message to you cleared through the "Outbox" and is now in "Sent", so I presume you received it and opened it (which would be consistent with Rufus' theory on how this works).

If so, that means the folks you sent messages to have not opened them.

Rude, I'm tellin' ya...don't stand for it!

A mere hypothesis......
