I replied to a PM yesterday.

The reply appears not to be saved in the sent items folder despite the reply being received.

Is there some control I should be setting to ensure replies are saved?

Once you've typed your reply, you have to tick the checkbox (Add a copy of this message to my sent items folder) below the message window. I think you can also make this setting permanent if you go into "My controls".

Thanks, Penz, I'll make sure I tick the check box.

Although I am sure I had made this setting permenant when I first joined TV. Still it could have "fallen out" under forum updates.

How did you do that?

oops, sorry, lazy English - should have been "thought" instead of "am sure".

And we all know what thought did?

It would be quite a nice feature though Maybe George or an Admin can suggest it to Invision?

It used to be by default, and you had to check the box so as to not save the message. I prefer this way as I do not reach my limit as quickly.

I've always considered the problem of cleaning up when a box becomes full, to be rather minor. Especially when compared to the irritation of trying to remember exactly I what wrote and who I slandered, in an already sent PM.

I should have written:

Yes, but I'm a hoarder - hate throwing things away. Just in case....

I agree. Messages used to be saved by default.

I checked my files and the last message I have saved was dated

25th Oct 2004.

Since then nothing.

Cannot see how to make it a default again.
