Ok, I really tried to fix this, I give up...
I went to my PM’s looking for an old message. They were all gone except for 1 from last week.
Then I find a “prune messages “ button. It is set to delete messages after 14 days. WTF?  If I did that I sure don’t remember, or know how I did it.
OR know how to get rid of it. I want to keep messages till I delete them, not after a number of days.
Anybody know how to change this setting?

Again, I’m blaming this debacle on Meathead cause he recommended this IPad.   Wink
Thanks, Craig

Do you have it configured to e-mail you copies of your PM's? If so, any chance you still have those older emails?

I find Metamucil works better.  Smiley

I do have it configured to emails, but delete them and always saved the PM’s. I can’t figure how to get rid of the prune thing. Is it new? Or I’m a dunce...

I've never clicked (Or noticed, until now) the Prune Messages button on the PM page, and to be honest I kinda don't wanna click it now at all... I've got PM's going back to 2009 in there... =\

Oh come on, join the game!
Click it, see if yours is set on 14 days too.
It won’t hurt....much

I’m pissed about the lost messages and figured I did something wrong.
Thanks for the response,

I never paid attention to it either. I tiptoed in, and it looks like if you click on it it's automatically set to "prune" after 14 days. I hit the back button to escape. Craig, it looks like the only thing you could do is change the 14 to 999 days. I'm sure Willow would have a better solution.

Normally I'm all over something technical like that, but the version of SMF we're running here is really old and kinda cantankerous, I don't wanna press my luck with that many old PM's at risk...   Shocked

That, and I'm in the clear, since I'd NEVER recommend anyone use any Apple product...  crazy2
