Had these queries so I am posting them here as it may help someone else as well..

1 -Under 'private messages', what does 'track messages' mean? amd how do you track messages?

When you send a PM to a member you can ask for a "read receipt" so you can see that the person has read it. The "track messages" allows you to view PM's that you sent with the "read receipt" request and whether they were read or not. Please note that the person receiving the PM can decline to send a read receipt if they want to so you may not know if they read it or not!


2 -If when reading through the forum you add to a thread, do you get an automatic reply when someone else adds another thread after you? or do you have to subscribed to get these emails?

You do not get an automatic notification of someone replying to a thread unless you subscribe to that thread.


3 - If you decide to add to lots of threads of a evening, is there any way of keeping track of the ones you posted so you can check them next time you log on,to check for further replies? (in case you forget them?) And is it ok to do this?

I personally use the "active topics" option so I can see the posts since I was last on etc. Read this following thread for info on how to find your own threads ..

Feel free to add as many new threads as you feel you need to.
