I beleive the out box is for messages that haven’t yet been received by the person whom you sent the messages to. So if it is still in the out box, they likely haven’t read it yet.

At least that’s what I’m led to beleive.

Thats exactly what it is. Think of it like Outlook Express or Outlook - a message sent remains in your outbox until it is delivered to the server, then it becomes a sent message.

oohhh okay, so its just in the process of getting to them?

i thought maybe i was clicking the wrong thing and sending it to this “outbox” instead of getting to the people.

Thanks
