A little bug, and a suggestion!

Hmmmm................sorry, just had it happen again, but I was sat in a reply for a long time (wives expect to be spoken to...........totally unreasonable IMO:D)

The work around was to login again, then it says something like "sorry, this forum is not accepting any new posts at the moment"............just back button your browser to your post, and send it;)

Hey, I think I have been on for over 60 minutes without logging myself off by mistake :halo:

EDIT: off topic/ Eileen confirms that the buttons look like Lotus Notes, but she will check on Monday

I also have this problem. It says I have 554 out of 500 and it is preventing me from sending/receiving messages. Can you still send/receive?

I deleted all inbox and sent messages before the upgrade. I also ended tracking on all messages. I did have about 250+ messages before the upgrade but I deleted them. If they used the current database, it should have been at 0. Double 0 and you still get 0... so, where is it getting my 554 out of 500?

I don't use the PM *that* much, but it is useful. I suppose I can just enable users to email me until that gets cleared up.

Hey Hey,

I can relate to both of these... I use remember me and also save my credentials for the site in my browser... Everytime I visit AO I get the two login boxes (basically one above the other) which is quite annoying... However even though I get the two boxes I can browse as though I'm logged in.... (FireFox).... I'm hoping a fix is found for this in the near future.

As for PMs... Mine read 886 out of 500... essentially between all my folders I had 386.. i twas adding 386 + 500 for the first number.... Upon deleting a message this was reset...

Peace,
HT

I think the pm's which were carried over got duplicated multiple times. i saw a same pm over and over again in the box. there were atleast 5 copies. i just wiped it all out.

I would love to try to delete a message to reset it... however, I have 0 messages in my inbox or sent box. I am unable to receive or send messages in order to delete to reset the count. I've tried to create a folder and delete that, but that doesn't reset the count.

I will take care of yours right now.

Done. You should show 0 now.

JPnyc: Were you talking about resetting my messages? If so, it still says I have 554. I logged out and back in. Both my inbox and sent box still read 0, but when I try to send a message, it says I've exceeded my limit.

I tried to send a thanks to you for fixing the problem and here is what I see.

Ok, then it has to be reset to the raw DB field. That I can't take care of until tomorrow sometime. I'm not at the office now.

no worries. I appreciate you looking into it. :)
