Default Private message weirdness

When I get a private message and read it, the "unread" count never seems to get reset to zero. I have to manually mark the message as read. Am I missing something?

Also, when sending a message it asks "Delivery confirmation? Ok/Cancel". Cancel makes it sound like the message won't be sent, but it just turns off delivery confirmation.

Same for all of us... thats just the way it is. I think delivery confirmation is for "stalker" use only.

I've never recieved a delivery confirmation...I always click ok on that little pop up window, cause it does sound like the message won't be delivered if I hit cancel. Hope I'm not on the "stalker" list now...

Are you using Firefox? I've noticed some odd things as well, yet some of them correct themselves if I use IE for a session.

In a previous life I used to do ciruit design. We used to say

"If you can't fix it, feature it"

Same difference I guess.

I would be fine with removal of that "functionality"!

I mean, with all the Hooker messages I have been getting lately, it really gets in the way!

All those in favor, say AYE!

Default Why don't I get the good messages?

Are hooker messages a feature, too? If so, DR is blocking my share. Censorship again! REVOLT!!!!!
