Hmm, it seems when I click on Private Messages, I can only see one, and it's several years old. I have clicked inbox and about everything else on that page. I just can't seem to get access to my older messages, or one newer one. I have one unread message I can't get too, and an inbox full of old messages I need to sort through and delete.

I have tried logging out and back in. Has anyone else experienced this? I haven't had this issue in the past.

Oh, and obviously please don't reply to this by private message!

What? Nobody, are you kidding me?

Everybody sent you the answer via PM...!

Is your sent items so full that it's reached peak storage limit and won't let any more come in until a few of those get dropped?
The storage limit is overall and doesn't care about new, old, drafts, whatever, just the # of items it contains.

 

[Dragline]

Just checked. No problems here. Yours might just be an isolated problem.
Are you able to access 'Sent Items'?
Sounds as though an inquiry to the admin is your next step.
Good luck.

Can't Access Old PM's in Inbox

Greg,

I appear to be the perfect candidate to respond to your question since my PMs have been full since "forever." I have access to all of my PMs: drafts, sent, and my inbox. I just checked this a.m.

I have experienced on occasion, which I "assumed" was Simon making changes to the bb at the same time I was accessing my PM mail, that the entire mailbox would disappear and nothing I did would bring it back, where I could not see anything except a bunch of blank white space. But the next time I logged in, it was there just like before.

Good luck.

Do you people have an "attachment" to your old PMs? Ha...........

I can't speak for Greg and the others, but I certainly don't beyond archiving for the challenge that ultimately presents itself, especially in the line of car provenance where someone asks where you received that piece of information.

Very similar to convention and event charting by year and occurrence. Just an additional resource to the non-electronic library; similar to saving the old typewritten copies of who owned what Alfa in 1967 and before. You'd be surprised how valuable those have been in tracking down missing pieces or people to contact for the missing pieces.

Congrats on your 3 thousanst post. 'Course you have a ways to go before for past Tifosi



ps. more info sent via PM

Dang, I didn't even notice that! Anyway, still can't access any of my older PMs. I can get them if they come into the box, but I can't access any older ones, except for one that came in during 2008
