Private Message behavior

[anonamouse]

Trying to send administrator PM and message stays in Outbox. Should they not be moving to Sent folder? Sorry for the simple question but couldn't figure out where else to ask.

anonamouse,

I replied to your PM, but will also reply here for posterity. Private Messages remain in Outbox until they are viewed by the recipient. I believe you're also allowed to edit your message until it's viewed. This is different from email, which is why it seems so weird. I'm just learning this myself.

Thank you for PM and response here as well. I was pulling my hair out wondering if messages were going anywhere. Hopefully this will help others out who may have same question.
