Messages vanish if the sender deletes their profile.

Hi I have recently discovered that two messages that I sent to two different profiles (both where un-read 3 weeks old) have disappeared from my sent list, I have not deleted them and I can still view there profiles.

So I'm left wondering if they received them in the first place.

Can anyone shed some light on this please.

Once a message has been read, the receiver can mark it as unread, so you can never be sure whether it was read or not.

Thanks for your reply, I did know that, however thats not what I was asking, the sent messages have disappeared completely, I have not deleted them at all, and if the two profiles I sent them to had simply deleted them, they would still show in my sent folder as deleted.

So I wondering if anyone else has experience this book before, where messages have simply disappeared into cyberspace and it makes me question if the recipient had actually received the messages or not ???

You will be very lucky indeed to get any correct answer, I have asked questions previously and got a 24 hr forum ban! Ffs!

I also have noticed the same thing where messages disappear, I watch with interest for an answer!

Good luck.

Messages are deleted after a certain period to free up server space

O o O oo

Don't talk about bans or you are likely to get another

To the OP, could your OH have deleted them?

I've not logged on for a while and now most of my messages have been deleted / I have loads of messages in my inbox and some of the older ones have gone missing

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!).

Thanks I was beginning to think I was going crazy, but it makes me think these types of messages that don't get read, are the actually being received by the person /profile that there being sent to
