You have to - if you want to / need to - delete messages from the OUTBOX the same way you did from the INBOX.

It depends on which recipient.

Say I wrote a PM/email with the following situation:

To: QuiltnNan, Anna.425
From: MTS
cc: valleyquiltermo, judykay
bcc: gigi10, ibadmin

The To names will see all the To and cc names
The cc names will see the To and cc names.

The To and cc names will not know that the bcc names received a copy of this PM/email.

The bcc names will see the all the To and cc names but only each ones own bcc.
Each will not know that the other bcc names also received a copy of the PM/email.

My copy (From) of the PM/email in my sent folder will show ALL the To, cc and bcc names.

Here's more info:

On a slightly related topic which would concern your regular email accounts - Just thought I'd pass this on:

I found out some really surprising info about bcc addresses few years ago.

The email message actually gets sent out with ALL the addresses (to:, cc:, bcc: ) attached. Something to do with SMTP protocol.

When it's gets to each recipient's mail server, then the other addresses are stripped out before being forwarded to individual mailboxes.

So technically, that individual email you received was sent to you with all the bcc addresses, but you never see them.

However, if a to: recipient had access to the mail server, it would be possible to view the bcc: addresses.

For 99% of the people who use bcc's, it is blind and works fine.

But in terms of legal, business and/or marital issues ;-) , you should just be aware there is a trail. And it is trackable. ;-)

I've never used it for "nefarious" purposes.

But I was really surprised - almost stunned - to learn that.

Especially when I think of some business emails that I've sent over the years.
Stopped that practice pretty quickly. ;-)

Thread tools upper right side. Click on Subscribe. Then you will get email notifications. You can choose how often
to receive the emails. If it is a thread like for a swap that you were a participant in before the change, you will have
to unsubscribe and immediately subscribe again. I am in the Nov Secret Pal swap and I got no email notifications until I did this.

Question Private Inbox Messages

I lost all of my private inbox messages. How do I get them back? I do not remember who they were from and the names especially my quilting angels that sent me gifts. My memory is not good which is why I kept them. Please help.

Your DEFAULT choice is set up in your GENERAL SETTINGS.

SETTINGS (on the black bar at the top of the screen)
GENERAL SETTINGS (on the left side - scroll down)

MESSAGING & NOTIFICATION
Default Thread Subscription Mode:
You can, however, override the default on specific threads.
Your choice.


My default is "through my control panel only"

I can't imagine getting buried in emails everytime there is a response to my subscribed threads.
I just go directly to SETTINGS - it works sort of like the old Watched Topics.
(with the annoying difference that includes threads where I was the last poster).

How did you lose them? Did you delete your pm's without saving them? Or can you just not find them?

MTS is right. Be sure to SAVE the changes you make or they won't work.

Unless you deleted them, they are there. You have to manually delete them for them to be gone
