This is actually a common misinterpretation. If a message sits in the outbox, that means that the recipient has not opened his/her inbox yet to read the message.

The message gets placed in the 'sentbox' only after the recipient read the message.

Doesn't make much sense, I know. Just for testing purposes tomato1, you can shoot me a PM to make sure everything is working properly.

Thanks,

Probably better to leave this thread--it's educational.
