Sent messages ????
 
Just curious guys if any of you could explain this.

When I send a private message, why would it not show up in my 'sent messages' folder ? I know I have sent messages before and the recipients have received them, but again they have never shown up in the sent folder ! My inbox has plenty of messages in it !

I suppose its genuinely not that important, but it would be nice to know my message has been sent.

Cheers !

It's an option, you have to "tick the box". :tuttut:

Hopefully the next three images will show I have selected the box !!!! I have selected sent items and clicked the go button !

Inbox status
Status of both boxes
Sent items selected and no messages

No, when you send a message (not look for it when it's not there). :rolleyes:

Duh..... silly me ! I just assumed a sent message would automatically go into the sent items folder. It turns out you have to change the settings - under "Additional Options" below - to get the system to keep copies of sent messages.

Cheers !

And every time as well, I think. :(

Think its a one off setting, only ever set mine once and it saves all sent messages+++

Under "quick links", "Edit Options" scroll down and look for

"Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default" and place a tick in the box, its remembered forever then.

The standard VBulletin option is to have this turned off.
