tick the box to save a copy in sent messages.

I don't think it stays highlighted though does it?

Does one have to tick the box EVERY time one sends a PM ?

It stays ticked until turned off. Don't forget to hit save down at the very bottom of the page though.

Sorry Spear for annoying you - do I have to tick this box every time I want to save a message in my sent items folder or is there somewhere where I can always save sent messages in sent folder?

Cheers in advance

Once you place a tick in the box that says: "Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default" which can be found at:

User CP > Edit Options (Under the Settings & Options heading) > Private Messenging (which can be found in the Messaging & Notification box)

...then all PMs you send from that point onwards will automatically be saved in your Sent Items.

Click here to be brought to your User CP and ensure there is a tick in the "Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default" box.
