FabSwingers.com forum: Messages opening

By (user no longer on site) OP

Hello just wondering, basically had the profile set to hidden for a few weeks. We had 40 unread messages. Now I’ve come on yesterday said we had only 9 unread. Today it says 1 unread. However neither of us are reading the messages?

Should we just change our password as a precaution?

Can messages open themselves after so long?!

Thank you

The older ones may have deleted, I think they only stay live forever a certain amount of time, I know my mailbox goes down like that sometimes too

Fab is a super busy site. Hundreds of thousands of private mails are sent every day and we have tens of millions of such messages on our system. Because we do this mostly for free, we can't keep all the messages for ever because our costs would go up and up and the site would get slower and slower. Older messages that have already been read in "dormant" accounts that haven't been logged into for a while are removed from the system. Similarly if you have loads of mails in your inbox, the system will periodically remove some of the oldest.

If some mails are important to you and you want to make sure they're not deleted, become a site supporter and save any important mails to your "saved message folder" (look for "save it" on the bottom of messages you receive) and we'll keep those mails on the system (unless we screw things up and they get deleted too; but we'll try not to!).

Also is someone deletes their profile all messages they have sent disappear too.
