p.m. problem

Eru,

No need to apologize. I am still learning the ropes too.

You have eleven p.m.s? That's strange because you are only supposed to have a maximum of ten. Perhaps it means you have ten in the box and another one waiting?

In any case, try doing this.

Go to the bottom of this page and click on "forum jump". Find the line that says private messages, click on that, and punch 'go'. It should take you directly to the incoming private messages. You can delete or respond from there.

Next step: On the right at the top you will see a box labelled "jump to folder". Pick the option marked "sent" and it will take you to a screen where your sent messages are. You can read, delete, etc them there.

If you had folders you should also check what is in them. I am assuming you don't since you can't get into your mailbox.

Important note for everyone:

The number of your pms is determined not just by what is in your incoming pms, but also includes the sent mail and things in folders.

It is very important to "manage" your mail so these don't fill up too quickly. When you do a pm you can unclick the last two boxes at the bottom. This will eliminate a copy being stored in the sent file or receiving a receipt (unless you need these). Of course, you can also delete things in these various boxes.

Eruantalon:

If you still can't access your mail, contact Mister Underhill who can look and see if something is wrong. You can mention that you've already spoken to me and we were unable to straighten things out.

Is anyone else having pm problems? Since pms are vital for game planning, we want to make sure that these problems get worked out.....

Cami
