so does this mean that i will never get the PMs that cudnt get thru cozx the stoopid box was full? how can i get these Pms ??????

I'll see if I can retrieve your PMs from a backup...although it may take a little bit of time.

[Hawkeye]

Whats so hard about deleting them?

[Samuraid]

Oops. I misread your post. I thought you had deleted all of your PMs.:riiight:

Deleting any old PMs to clear out space should allow you to receive more.

[Ohhh]

so your sayin that the PMs that didnt get thru should get thru now?
BUT they havnt
so does that mean that they will EVENTUALLY get thru?

[crono_logical]

It means they couldn't get through because your box was full. Even if you make space, they won't come back, so tell the person to send it again

It's also notable that the person who sent you a PM *should* also have been notified that your inbox was full, so hopefully they were smart enough to save a copy or send it to you in another place. If it was important enough, anyway.

Looks like PY, here is lost. :P Just delete your PM box. I used to have a crap load of old PMs but I took em all off. And Im about to do it again...

[Loony BoB]

You guys do know there is an option to back them up to your hard drive, right?

[crashNUMBERS]

No.

[Loony BoB]

Go to the bottom of your PMs inbox. You can download PMs using the options around there.

[Ohhh]

Thanks!! i got the PMs in the end. i dunno how but

[crashNUMBERS]

How do I know what drive I have??

[rubah]

well, most people would just save them to their desktop, which is in C:\. They would also probably save them as text, which would probably take away all the neat colors and stuff.

Crap, I misread the topic and err my mind went into automatic instinct fear.


Try making a back up of all your PMs as .txt format files then delete them, more space and you can still read them or if you want to gooky colours .HTML format, more space in your PM box means you can recieve stuff better.
