Private messages not being sent??

Post by MartinBryant »

I just noticed that a private message that I sent on October 23rd is still sat in my Outbox along with another that I created earlier today.
Anyone else noticed a problem with messages actually being sent?

Martin, it will sit there until the recipient decides to log in.

And the recipient's inbox needs to be not full, i. e. less than 150 messages.

Was it me you sent the message to by any chance? I've had a full inbox for some time. Cleaned it out a few days ago, and I might have accidentally deleted newer messages coming in during the cleaning run...

No, it was someone called Colin-G who had a problem with Colossus on Linux.

I just saw your message today after logging in and have replied to it.
