well? I have 3 messages in my sentbox and 1 in my outbox, why is the one in the outbox when I know I hit send after I wrote it btw. Yannick, today I'm getting an alarming amount of mysql errors in the top left corner. But hopefully that has to do with the server switch

The outbox is the box that contains the PM being sent. The sentbox are the PM that have been read by the recipient. And these MySQL errors must have been due to the fact that I filled the HD by mistake. (only a partition, not the whole 120 GB ) Yannick

aaah, ok. So the sentbox basically works as a reciept that the reciever has actually got the message

Uhm.... in Outlook, it's like this: - You write a mail and press "Send" - Mail goes to Outbox - When mail is sent successfully, it goes to "Sent items" So that mail in your outbox has not been sent yet, maybe because of an error with the SMTP-server.
After all is said and done, more is said than done.

That is not e-mail, it is private messages. Yannick

Aaaah... I never sent any messages to people who contacted me; guess nobody likes me!

hmm, another question about this outbox: why is there a send button in it, if the message has been sent already when it goes into this folder, and it only shows you the recipient hasn't read your message yet?

That Send button is to send a new PM, not to send the Outbox. Yannick

aah, ok. I was a bit afraid to click it, wouldn't have wanted to get an angry mob after me if they got the same message twice
