Anybody else having trouble with Private Messages getting stuck in their Outbox?

I believe they stay there until they're read by the recipient and then go to the sent box?

That is my understanding as well. I've had them sit for days, one for over a week. Recipient never noticed it. Not everyone does, and not everyone visits the Forum regularly. I've found that, in general, email works better than PM.

Thanks! I figured it out shortly after I posted the question. I've been a member of several forums and never experienced that before. Kind of nice feature once you understand what's going on.

Yeah, you can tell if they've been read or not plus you can edit them up to the time they're read :)
