Page 2 of 3 < 1 2 3 > Topic Options #39733 - 08/28/01 11:56 PM Re: PLEASE DON'T PM ME! Scribbler journeyman Registered: 01/21/01 Posts: 86 Loc: Utopia, not in literal sense, ... Friend Max, There IS a way (quite simple, really) to retain a copy of PMs. Both Jackie and Caradea -and perhaps others - can 'splain it to you (as they did for me some months ago.)Whilst I durst not trust my 19th Century memory or 17th Century computing skills, I feel certain these AWAD stalwarts would gladly oblige you. As to the other problems involved w/ PMs, there may be equally simple solutions. In any event, "Good luck! We're all counting on you!" (This is a quote which my (grown) children often throw around. I think it may be from a film or perhaps a Monty Python skit.) As I review other posts to you, it occurs to me that I also have sent PMs to you in your other-worldly _(i.e. non-AWAD) name. E-mail works well enough.

That certainly is one way to get round the problem of not having a 'Sent messages' folder, nonetheless, I think Max sees the PM system as 'fatally flawed' (sic).

Vernon Compton enthusiast Registered: 06/29/01 Posts: 273 Loc: NZ In reply to: One does not get a record of one's sent PM's Why not just compose PM's in an external editor then C&P them into the Board's message window? Sounds easier than posting a rant here. Top #39736 - 09/03/01 05:32 AM Re: PLEASE DON'T PM ME! Bingley Carpal Tunnel Registered: 04/09/00 Posts: 3065 Loc: Jakarta I'm posting this publically in deference to your dislike of PM's Max. I tried emailing you from AWADabilia but it was bounced back with the following message: Hi. This is the qmail-send program at paradise.net.nz. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. <<maxq@paradise.net.nz>: Sorry, no mailbox here by that name.
