Yet again someone sent me a private message to which I replied but after several days I can see my reply still remains unopened.

I had a message via my email that someone had sent me a PM so would not my reply to him do the same?

There is a tick box for opting in or out of this, I have mine set to send me an email so I also get the notification, but I don't know what the default is for new members.

The notification system is unreliable. It used to work for me, but then stopped for reasons unknown, even by the IT people. Now, after many months, it seems to be working again, if somewhat intermittently.

I tend not to bother answering highly technical, and unsolicited, PMs from members with few, if any, posts. The chances are they arrived via google search, joined, flashed off a post or two and a few PMs, and then disappear for ever. I've wasted enough time answering technical questions that then go unread for months.
