Is this sending a totally new message or replying to one?

It seems to be a bug. Under what circumstances it occurs - some Wink

I posted it on the Yabb support forums & got no replies (....) It may have occurred due to the transfer from our old server.

The workaround is to 'PM' the person rather than 'reply' ... Not clean & many will encounter the problem.   Smiley

Sooner or later I'm intending to transfer these forums to a PHP based alternative. Simply because the Yabb support is so weak. Problem with this 'free' forum (yabb is needlessly & stupidly free) is that support is just not there. I wish they'd charge & be there .....  Roll Eyes  -- So - soon time to move on ..

 

Think Global. It's the world we live in.

That's what I did... Simple, but effective!  Cheesy

Or start at the top of the list and reply and then delete and do this working your way down the list. This also avoids the same problem Wink
