Private Messages Slow to Leave Outbox
Does anyone else have the problem that I sometimes experience - that private messages can take a long time to leave your outbox?
I drafted a reply to a private message I received at lunchtime today. 5½ hours later, I looked and the message is still sitting in my outbox waiting to be delivered to the lucky recipient.
Or do messages sit in my outbox until the person its addressed to logs on?

same issue
I have that issue also. Even the edit/submit on the message stuck in the outbox does not always send it.

I'm not very sure on this but I guess that your PM will leave "Outbox" and moves to "Sentbox" once it's read by the recipient (the "lucky recipient" as Alex Bridgema puts it :) ).
So, my guess is, if a PM is still sitting in your "Outbox" that means that your lucky recipient has not checked his/her "Inbox" messages yet.
- Technology has its issues :) ....
... anyway, maybe Roy can check with Stewart about this issue.

I can assure you that Stewart has been alerted and will check on this.
Thanks!

PM's in Outbook
Mario is, in fact, correct.
It's not that the PM are slow to be delivered, they simply remain in your Outbook until the recipient reads them.
Cheers!
