So, I sent a PM to someone for the first time and then I went in to purge my out of control inbox and accidentally deleted the message I had just sent. Does this mean the recipient will not get it? Or is it still active and just not in my inbox until they reply? I seriously need to pay more attention to what I'm doing. *face palm*

The recipient will get it, but you may have deleted your copy, if you have been using conversaton view and purging entire threads. If it's not in your Sent Items, send Vekseid a PM to see if he can retrieve it for you.

Yeah, I was just deleting entire conversation threads. And I’ll be honest, I have no idea how to even find my Sent Messages. Lol. I’ll give it a day or so te see if the person I messaged responds. Thanks for easing my terror. XD

My Messages > Read my messages (from top of the page) > Sent Items (in the sidebar).

You can always PM them again and ask them to quote your message back to you, for your record.

Oh! I had the sidebar collapsed. Thank you for the help. Lol. I'm usually not this clueless. And it's there. So I'm all good! Phew!

*snorts* I did this exact same thing a while back. You are not alone in that.
