Outbox and Sent Messages... What's the Diff?

[anamainiacks]

heya all,

i've recently sent 2 messages, but they appear to be in my Outbox. i also noticed that most of my previous messages are all in my Sent Messages section. so what's the difference between these 2 sections? does outbox mean that the message hasn't been sent be is still pending? cos 1 of them has been sitting there for a day now

thanks!

outbox msg means that the user who you sent it to has not checked his/her inbox yet while sent msg means that he/she has checked his/her inbox

While a message is still in your outbox, you can edit it, or delete it, if you notice a typo or change your mind or something similar. Once a person reads it, you can no longer change it, which is why it is moved to a separate "box".
