By default, you will have two folders in your private message area. These are the Inbox and the Sent Items folders.

The Inbox folder contains any new messages you receive, and allows you to view all the messages you have received, along with the name of the person who sent the message to you, and the date and time the message was sent.

The Sent Items folder contains a copy of any messages that you have sent, where you have specified that you wish to keep a copy of the message for future reference.


but where is the setting lol

Hello BM
Put a checkmark in box to the right of message to be save.
Scroll to bottom of message page and clic on Selected Messages button, hi-light "Download as TEXT" then clic the Go button
A file download window will open, clic save (to Location= desktop or new folder in your name) in notepad text,This can be done to sent and recieved messeages.

Cheers :cool:

Hello BM

My bad, misread :dizzy:
Howsabout this then, go thro same processe I posted and clic Delete for each message.

All messages(Sent/Recieved) are save by default, manual removal is all I know.

I don't know if there's an option to change it for all but there's a checkmark at the bottom of the private message window you can uncheck if you don't want to save a copy of it.

yes it is there.... and you have to uncheck it for every message.
I thought there was an option not to save any in the sent message folder

Thanks for your help

You called him sweetie, sheesh, you have been looking for that PM feature for too long. :p

Using the same software as the Pub, there's a "mod" that can beinstalled to allow the automatic saving of sent PM's, maybe a mod is required here too.
