Cannot pm

[TwinMum3]

Hello.  I am new to MDC.  Lately when I have tried to send a PM to another member and hit submit I get an error message stating I have fulfilled my daily allotment of 2 messages per day, however I have not sent one message yet!  Do I need to activate something or accrue more time as a member before I can send messages?  Help!  

I am using a MacBook Pro and Safari web browser.

Thanks!

Hi TwinMum3 and welcome to Mothering. 

I think some settings changed recently that should now be back to normal. Please try to PM again and let me know if the problem persists.

HI!

I am having the same issue. I am on Firefox on a Mac. I sent one PM, tried to PM someone else and was told I had used up my daily allotment of 2 PMs! This happened today.

Just letting you know.

Guess I will wait until tomorrow to send my other PM or will try again later!

ttfn!

You shouldn't have the same issue. Your group settings allow you a pretty large number of PMs per day. I'll check into it...

Sounds like the same thing that's happening to me.  I joined a couple days ago and have been trying to respond to some forum posts.  I have gotten that "2 posts" allowed message and it appears that the last PM I tried to send didn't go through.

Do I need to change some of my settings?

Thank you!  :-)

You should be able to send 5 PMs a day as a new member. We don't want to increase that so that spammers do not abuse the privilege.
