Steve, I'll shoot you an email at the address you have listed and yes Venmo is good for me.
PM's will fail and disappear into the ether if no text is entered into the "Subject" line. That's often overlooked when composing new PM's and is likely the case here.

Ah, ok - that makes sense. Is there any way to make that a mandatory field?

Not sure but it would be helpful. I imagine a lot of messages have been lost due to that and that many senders just assumed the recipient was ignoring their PM.

After a little research, this is what I discovered. If you don't enter a subject, but try to send the PM anyway, it will seem like that PM was sent (and later seems like it disappeared into the ether). But, I think what is really happening is that the system bounces you back and gives an easy-to-miss warning that you need a subject line. Very easy to miss, but I think what's happening is that you are hitting send (submit) and when the screen updates you (justifiably) think the PM is sent when in reality the system is taking you back to the PM-composition page and telling you to add a subject line. Make sense? See example screen shot below -- this is what pops up after trying to send a PM without a subject line....

hmm, I just went out to my messages and found a couple messages I thought had sent a couple days ago still sitting in my outbox. I went into one of them and clicked on the "Send Reply" button and it went. Weird.

Then I went back into my private messages and it was still sitting in my outbox, but when I go into the message string I can see the response that I just sent. Would've expected the message to be removed from my outbox after I sent it.

It gets removed from your outbox once the recipient has opened it.
