Young people will laugh, old ones won't. I got a dozen hits on my ad. Take measurements, more pics, shipping costs, confirm the ad info, I want it, etc. So, I start responding as I get the info. But today, I can't remember which messages I responded to, and which ones I didn't. Unlike my email, I can't open up a "sent" folder and double check. Or can I? I see I can track a read reciept, but that's it.

any help out there?

The doc says, you just can't remember things, so write everything down. Last night I get up from the sofa to get a snack and the wife says " bring me some ice cream, and write it down so you dont forget." I said, "I can remember Ice cream" She says "i want whip cream too, write it down" I said, I can remember ice cream with whip cream. She says " but, I want a cherry on top, write it down" I said "I can remember ice cream, whip cream and a cherry, sheesh"
So 20 minutes later I take her some ham and eggs and she starts yelling at me that I didn't write it down. She says" you forgot the toast"

Near the top of the page in user control panel are folders.

Sorry, I still don't get it. What I'm looking for is a copy of the message I sent. ALL I find is a reciept, that they got the message, if I remembered to ask for one.

Look at the bottom of the page when you are looking at your PM's. There are little icons that show you the staus of the message. YOu will see these corresponding icons next to each post you have...

Also, at the top of the page you can select your sent messages folder to see what you sent... Just click on the little arrow to the right of the box that shows "inbox" and select what you want from the drop-down list.
