Hello sdholland,

Messages on boards offer a reply facility underneath the message ... click that button and make you reply then click the preview button ... if you're satisfied with the message click the post button.

Private Messages have quote, reply and delete buttons. If you use Quote the message you received will be shown in your reply but be careful to look for slash quote in brackets at the end of the message and start your reply below that otherwise your reply and the received message will appear together in the same block. If you start your message below slash quote in brackets the received message appears in its own block with your reply below it. If you don't want the received message quoted click the reply button.

Further to Christopher's reply - if you're talking about Personal Messages, currently you need to have made 5 or more posts on the boards to use this facility.  This is a recent development to prevent spam.

Welcome and I hope you are enjoying Rootschat

Kind regards, Arranroots

I just tried to send a PM & got this message

PM could not be sent to 'xxxx xxxxxxx' due to the max. PM limit.

Is it a limit on my profile or the recipients ?

Hi John,

It's usually the recipient, although if you have a lot of PMs you can try deleting some and see if it still happens.

Most common cause is that the recipient is new and has no postings.  this automatically applies a "max. PM limit".

regards,
Bob

Hi all!

I have just had the same issue with the pm system, returning a message telling me the pm can't be sent because of the max limit.

I'd just finished weeding out my pm box, so I don't think it's my end.  The pm is going to a new member, but I have previously sent them a pm here so I'm unsure as to why there's an issue.....

..... any ideas?
