Only the ones on that page. But yes, they will.
CSV means "comma separated values" which, when put into Excel means that the different fields (subject, from, date etc.) appear in different columns.
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
All of my puzzles are simple and obvious. For certain values of "simple" and "obvious".

Not quite that easy. I get it though. save the first page, delete the pm's then save the next page....I'm talking to myself. I should go to bed.

That can happen if someone sends you a PM, but then deletes it before you read it. It stays in their Outbox until you read it, and until then they can edit or delete it.

Hope that helps!

When they delete it though you get a message saying someone has sent a pm and deleted it. So getting the message and nothing being there is weird. I've turned off the email notification thing as I'd rather just check on here than be clogged up with emails.

I get my emails to my phone as well, so I can delete it using the phone withought having to even turn the computer on ;)

I didn't get a message saying it had been deleted.

LOL - I'm betting there isn't such a message :lol:

You here the bell when the letter drops through your postbox, but you don't hear anything when they sneak up to your door, cut a hole in the bottom of the box, and nick the letter back again ;) :geek:
