Private Message Quota

SteelieSlammer · 01-05-2006, 03:54 PM

I didn't know we had a private message quota?

How many messages is that?

How long until i can send and recieve again?

You can save up to 199, then you have to clear out the trash. If you need to save them, copy them to a Word document and save them on your own computer.

I only have 7 saved. Is this like microsoft outlook that you have to delete them from you inbox and then delete them from the deleted items folder??

You can forward them to yourself by e-mail, or you can copy and paste. It is not like Outlook. Delete it once and it's gone, no undelete or trash file available.

If that is the case then and i only have 7 messages in there, what do i need to do to be able to send or recieve them again?

You shouldn't have any problems ... what is the symptom?

If i try to send something it says

"This user has exceeded their private message quota and may not receive any new private messages."

I was assuming this meant me but I now see it's referring to the recipient of the message.

Oops

That is the person you are sending the PM too that has a full box. They need to do some housekeeping as mentioned above.
I hope this helps...
