Where is the PM mailbox? as I cannot find it in my settings or profile. I'm sure I used to have one.

Cheers.

Messages are delivered to the email address you set up in your profile. smile

There is no mailbox on the site.

There is indeed a mail server issue.
Things are being delivered. But delayed a bit...

I've been trying to PM people too, and nobody seems to be getting them... I sent some test PM's to myself and never got those either frown

PMs should be getting through, though somewhat delayed.
Have you checked your spam filter?
& that people aren't ignoring you wink

SA sent you a PM but I bet you can guess that I cannot send you a message via the mobile site.

12th jan sent blank email because that's all you can do via the mobile site and yet no email confirmation reply. It did get there which is nice.

About time a little honesty was available.

The situation is exactly as before.
We also appear to be on someones naughty list which may be resulting in more messages than normal being classed as spam and filed as such.

is the pm service still not working (as well as it should be)?

i've not received an email to confirm my pm was sent.

previous replies in this thread say messages can be delayed for 12 -24 hours. frown

I've never even seen a PM option, just the option to send an email.

sorry, you're right it's not an actual pm service. it's an email to email service, but the sender is supposed to receive an email confirming the message was sent.
