PM's not working?

I have sent a few PM's with no response to a couple other people and they may not be getting through or they dont like me :) I tried sending something to myself and it doesnt get through either, on other php3 boards it works, I.e. you can send to yourself so I am thinking none of my pm's did get through.


Is something going wrong with pm's?


Edit, to add.. I don't know, maybe people are ignoring me :) I found the pm I sent to myself but I didnt check because it didnt say I had any messages waiting but it was there. So the pm came through but it still said (0 new messages) so had me fooled.

Thanks,

There are some options in the User Control Panel (under board preferences) Make sure you have 'Allow users to send you private messages' enabled (should be by default I think?) but be aware other people may have this turned off.

I think the only notification possible is via email. As a compromise thoughif you use a browser extension like PushBullet you can get a notification on your PC screen when you get an email (or other notification) on your smartphone
