zq29 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I believe you're able to send PMs after 10 (constructive) posts in the forums. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/187121-send-a-pm-but-its-not-in-the-outbox/#findComment-988183 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 There should be no restrictions on sending PMs for new users (except you may have to fill out a CAPTCHA). The post requirement was lifted quite a while ago.

Philip Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 It is possible that you unchecked (or was default unchecked) the box at the bottom of that page: Quote [X] Save a copy in my outbox I'd wait a few days, and then check with the user you sent it to, seeing if they got it (or talk to one of the admins) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/187121-send-a-pm-but-its-not-in-the-outbox/#findComment-988192 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cags Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Just to confirm what KingPhilip was saying the options is definatately off by default. So unless you change the option in your settings you will not get a copy of the message in your outbox. I know this because I asked a very similar question awhile back. Just one cautionary note, unsolicited PM's can very likely get you ignored. Several times I've had people PM me because I have helped them on a previous topic, this often results in me not bothering to reply to new topics as I do not like being hassled. Of course if the PM is not related specificly to a thread they haven't replied to in the last 10 minutes and you have a reason to PM the person then this doesn't apply.

Daniel0 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I just checked the database. Your PM has been sent. It has deleted_by_sender=1 (which is equivalent to having not chosen "save in outbox") so that's why you cannot see it. As for blocking, yes it is possible to block PMs from all or selected members, but you would be able to see that when you try sending.
