A PC - it is a good job you explained what you understood to be the difference between a PC and a Computer or I would have been totally confused.!

Does the fact that you are asking mean that it has been saved to somewhere on my actual PC? - In which case I can delete it etc if you can give me an idea as to where it might have saved it or what it night have called it.

My son says I know the oddest bits - beginnings and ends of actions but get lost knowing how to link them together - my brain must be wired differently to the programmers!

If you are using the pms account to save stuff it should be in your draft folder
have a look

"manage pm drafts"

you can also set up folders to save your emails into saves deleting them as there is only so much room in inbox for messages.
I have not used it before but just had a go and it seems to work

No it is not in there - maybe I didn't actually hit the SAVE button and just thought I did - at least now I know where it will go if I do actually hit it!

should be in your outbox or it might be in pm drafts
A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Have looked carefully and come to the conclusion that I imagined pushing the SAVE button I have a tendency to imagine I've done something and then find I haven't.

I didn't mean to cause an argument :!:

Thank you for all your help
