went to my inbox since i received a PM this morning and sent a couple of responses to that PM. when i went back to the inbox a few minutes ago to see if i had a response it says i have 14 viewers on the first and 3 on the second... is this just a fluke or are others able to view our PM's? not that i am worried about what i posted in them but am just concerned...are the PM's not private? suzi g

I think it counts how many times both you and your recipient have viewed that "thread" between yourselves.  If I re-read the topic or replied, the count went up on my own PM's.  This is ONLY an observation on my part.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Torrey, I think that's probably what is happening & believe it does that on other forums as well. I've gone back and checked on the PM several times. Just didn't think between me and the recipient that it would have been viewed 14 times in less than 24 hrs. Appreciate your input :). suzi g
