  For what ever reason, I cannot access the "outbox" of my personal messages.
  Although it shows that I have two pages of messages sent, it will not open up the second page, and even if it did, I have no idea if it is up to date.
  Also, being more than full of hot air (and yes Stainless, other materials) When I am typing out a fairly long winded message, after a fair amount of verbage (or garbage some might say) I cannot see what I am mistyping without stopping to scroll up.
  This makes it almost impossible to make corrections as I cannot scroll up, delete and type at the same time, and I end up deleting something three lines above the intended error or mistatement.
  Is it just me that is hexed (by Stainless I am sure) or am I among the masses?
  I am hereby stating that any and all errors I make are not caused by me so  if you sue me, you will only get my warped Visa Card which is past due......................... Bob

Bob, obviously it is time to put your fingers on a diet... or clean the virus from your computer... I am not having any of those issues, my problem is the print seems to be getting smaller the later in the day that I look at it....  :roll:

Bob 1, same here. There is no sent messages folder, but my Outbox works as it should....you can read the message there until it is opened by the recipient.I'd prefer a sentbox

Bob 2, "ctrl+" is your friend. :wink:

btw, I had my own little computing issue yesterday so I wrote this......

I do not like that Macitosh,
that Macitosh, I do not like.

It tells me what I have to do,
And does nowt that I want it to.
...
It jams my hard drive full of sh1t,
And then it friggin copies it.

It’s Bluetooth isn’t very good,
Won’t hook to all the things it should.

In Windows music is a cinch
But Itunes turned me into Grinch.

Special case , expensive bag
JUST F***** LET ME CLICK AND DRAG!

Few understand what I'm trying to do but they vastly outnumber those who understand why...................

If that's not enough, now it's turning important letters into asterisks.  :roll: Wayno

... and a message is saved in the Outbox as default.  I can't find any mention of a regular "Sent Messages" box.

I sent a couple of PM's let's see what happens when they're read.

  Bob, I still cannot acces any outgoing personal messages sent since 2006.
  My file shows a page two but will not open.
  I wouldn't be quite as concerned except that I P.M.'d a member on a serious matter a few days ago and have no idea if it went thru.  His email is unlisted.
                                       Thanks, Bob

Bob: do you have the "Save a copy of each Personal Message in my outbox by default." box checked?

Thanx for that 4-B -- didn't know that was available and sometimes forget to check the box.

  Of course I didn't.  It wasn't right in front of my face............
  I spent two hours looking for the Dodge default key.
  I am just proud that Stan appears to be no smarter than I am.
  Maybe I should not have eaten the kids..............  but then again...............
