I think PMs stay in the outbox until the recipient has read it. It then is shown as Sent.

At least (from my observations) that seems to be the behaviour of the PM part of this forum software. I could be wrong. Either way don't worry. It disappears from the outbox eventually as everytime you send a PM, the recipient is notified by email and they usually pick it up pretty quickly.

Not sure if the message in question is to me, but I can't respond anyway, there's an error message:
"Some users couldn’t be added as they have disabled private message receipt."

As Terry stated on this type of forum all messages stay in the outbox until who ever it is sent to picks it up to read, then it shows as sent,
normaly you can enable or disable the messaging from your User Control Panel if not Terry should be able to go in as admin and set it for you .

Heh, I fully understand how all this works, I think it's safe to say it's not my config that has a problem...! Course, that message was probably directed to the original poster, so all I can say is 'yes'.
