Probably irrelevant, but go into your messages and look at the "message tracking" option. Might those 4 be messages that have not been flagged as read by the recipient?
That could cause them to "hang around" in the system, even after you have deleted them.
just a wild guess :)
might have been - doesn't the 'stop tracking' button end that though when it deletes them from the message tracking folder?
Maybe that is the "bug"..................something odd like a user getting banned before they reply or putting you or you putting them on the ignore list.
:rolleyes: Some days even wearing your lucky rocketship underpants doesn't help. :rolleyes:
I hesitated hard before making this final post here, but decided that for the best interest of other AO members who might suffer the major brainfartitis I suffered from yesterday the solution might help.
mnstrgrl solved the problem.
mnstrgrl in her infinite wisdom sent me a one line solution by PM, and caused me to admit publicly that I too am capable of newbie mistakes.
mnstrgrl told me to check my sent messages folder.
I deleted the 4 mystery messages. Problem solved.
/me blushes, furiously. :rolleyes:
The benifits of KISS. Keep it simple stupid. Lmao
That was my initial guess after reading the first line but you said you checked the folder so I didn't post thinking it was a weird internal problem but glad you figured it out, even though it was that simple. =PQuote:

I have been through inbox, sent, and message tracking, traced everything back to the beginning, and deleted everything, yet those 4 messages still remain. Could anyone please enlighten me on what they are, and how to review/remove them? Thanks!
A few hours later:
I couldn't resist:
Just a tiny PM:
Now I wonder just how many PM's he has NOW ...............
ROFL :D
Just got a couple off that believe it or not. Amazingly enough I've been razzed more here. I guess folks realize that 'stupid mistakes' happen every now and then. That's how we got the old 1=2 algebra equation with the nifty lil division by zero error hidden within it, how the Dems nominated Kerry, and how Florida can't count. Ah well. Razz away guys, I deserve it. Oh, send a hurricaine this way. We need the rain. Durrrrrrrrrrr.
