This is just the way the board works. When you send a message it goes into your Outbox and remains there until it is collected by the recipient, at which point it moves into your Sent Items. If you delete a message from your Outbox, it will not be received. It may just be unfortunate naming, as I know Outlook (not responding) uses Outbox for messages whilst you are offline, then empties it once an email is actually sent.

Cheers R.

That explains a lot - thanks Robert. I was expecting messages to go from the Outbox like Outlook or a text. Always wondered why they took such a long time to go :)
