It has happened to me a couple of times.
Didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason, but it might be related to time that the window is open.
 
Could also just be wierd.Confused

[QUOTE=Norsky] Ditto - I can't count how many times I've had that happen.  Most of the time it is related to my session "timing out" and I need to log in again to complete the message.  I too have gotten in the habit of copying/pasting the message into NotePad before clicking the Send button.[/QUOTE]

Jim, why is it the session times out? Was there a change made somewhere along the line? I don't remember previously my session timing out. But, since you bring this up I notice that mine does now as well.

I know that up until recently (this year) I had never experienced the issue.

I am not sure if this is the common factor or not. I guess I was hoping through this thread that enough conversation would be generated to pinpoint a root cause from a list of possible varibles.

At this point it appears I was not the Lone Ranger. Tuxblacray2008-10-01 12:37:17

Yep. You said a mouthful Tux. Guess I've experienced it all, to the point of avoiding PM except for one liners or so. Very frustrating.

Until the source of the problem is identified and corrected, just be sure to "copy" all of your P/M text before hitting the "send" button. I've run into similar issues when posting in the forums, and it's always after spending 20-30 minutes on a reply. I have learned to "copy" it all before posting, just in case.
I have only had the issue with the P/M once or twice, as far as the "user unknown" deal, but I get e-mails for a lot of folks that try to P/M me and they get the same error message....

Joel,
 
Thank you for your reply.  I know Tux and others have suggested copying it before hitting send.  I'll try and figure out how to do that.
 
You may be on to something about length of message.  The one that I lost yesterday, I spent a lot of time to get it just right, and lost it all.Unhappy  Others that took only a few minutes to type went right through.Wink
 
Thank you.
 
Dean

This is more than my nerves can take!!!!!!!! It happens all the time, i
type real slow. Does Adam know about this problem and is he working
on it. It seems this has been going on for awhile.
