What happens when you restore a PM?

[Blondie]

Does it get resent?

 

[flaps]

it gets restored

no, it doesn't get resent

 

[Blondie]

So then what is the purpose of having a restore feature?

 

[Dan Murphy]

Should I check my PM box, Blondie?

 

[flaps]

perhaps so folks who change their minds 'bout cancelling a PM can do so, provided it's not been deleted yet

or, perhaps, for the very curious who hope and/or persuade the sendee to restore the cancelled PM

or maybe for the packrat-y who can't stand to delete a PM that's been cancelled

that's 'bout all I can figure, anyway

ETA: saves havin' to retype and resend a cancelled PM

I don't know but did you look at my Ghost Pictures?? I know that stuff interests you as well. They are really awesome.

Okay back to your originally scheduled PM message

I didn't know we had an option to <i>restore</i> a pm.

 

[flaps]

nativetxn - if you go to your message tracking, you'll see that you can cancel a PM you've sent if the recipient hasn't picked it up yet. you have the option of "un-cancelling" the cancelled message so long as the other party hasn't yet deleted it (don't know if that makes any sense )

Works like a recycle bin on a PC, gone, but not really, so restorable.
