All to the same person, so that would make sense. Thanks.

I'm new to the board, and joined mainly as I was looking to purchase a print that's unavailable on eBay, but there are a few on here for sale. After submitting the message, it says that the message has been sent. However, on the messaging folders section my sent messages are in the "Outbox" folder, and none of them are in the "Sent" messages folder. Is this supposed to happen (and my messages have been successfully sent), or is there an issue with my messages not sending? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Just means it has not been read by the recipient yet.

When a message is in your Outbox, it just means the person you sent the message to hasn't opened/read it yet.

I believe messages in the Outbox simply mean they haven't been read yet by the recipient.

Hi!
Is anyone else having trouble sending private messages? For some reason my messages just stay in the outbox and aren't delievered. Or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

They sit in the outbox until they are read by the other member. So they might not be read, yet.

Welcome!

Messages in your outbox means that the receiving party has not read them yet.
