|
Dallan, I didn't realize that my Sent folder reached a 100%. There were two notes in the Outbox to English Mike and henrystraker. I assume they were ones that didn't get sent. I wasn't able to resend them from the Outbox like with MS Outlook. So I recreated them and submitted. However, now the last two showed up on the Sent folder and the Outbox.
Can you help me understand this behavior or what I might have done incorrectly?
Or as Vince just pondered, why?
Thanks in advanced, Dallan!

The outbox is where messages sit until they get "read". Once "read" they should get moved to "sent". So if you have a ton of messages sitting there in your outbox, thats due to people not reading them.
I upped all the limits from 100 to 1000. That might be a mistake though... it can let your boxes grow to unmanagable sizes lol!

Thanks, Dallan. I didn't realize that it meant that they message hadn't been read/viewed if still in the outbox.

Wait, if your sent folder is full, does the next composed message just sit in the outbox or, if sent is full, you are not allowed to create anymore messages?
