I would not wish to send attachments here.

IGP - if I click on your name as if to send a message, the recipient's name is your first name and the first letter of your surname.

Yes it did IGP.

With the old system would your name have come through or should the message have read from InspectorGreenPen.

For the record your name came through.

Gai just sent you a pm. Did it come through ok?

Heading is
"Message Test"

Text is
"Test - pls ignore"

Sylvia,

I just tried to send you a pm and first time it wouldn't go because my subject title wasn't long enough.

Then i changed the title to fit but it had dropped your name off, so when I went to send it , it had no receivers name.

Gai

and it seems that I cannot send pms


the ones I tried to send Monday afternoon and evening have all gone to Drafts, not Sent


and, yes, I did click on Send. I was very very careful to do that ..... especially with pms that I sent for a second time!

GR updated the site today,

some updates are a vast improvement however when i try to look at my older sent messages i get the following

Warning
It is not possible to read this conversation

so i cannot use these old messages as a reference for future communications with my contacts

also put this on Norfolkboy's thread on the general board

As not being very computer literate, if I wanted to send a London marriage image ect from ancestry it sounds like hard work...I cannot work how to save things to my computer nor do I want a load of stuff which is not related to me in my files to be honest

Maybe its just me??

Just saw thsi message, very handy now that you can do this! :-D

Just noticed the change Potty, thought I was going mad! Well, a good idea I must say.

Just to let everyone know that the new facility for adding attachments to PMs works. Means we don't now have to ask people to send us their email addresses to send documents, etc to them.
