Do you mean poll questions? Do you mean they just aren't there anymore, like they got deleted?

Exactly. At one point there were several polls...some of which were somewhat old...but nevertheless there were many. This morning there were none.

Not sure what info might be helpful to figure this out...

It sounds like they could have been deleted, but without more information, it's hard to know what exactly happened. Are those sub-boards set up to delete messages that are a certain age, and were those polls older than that? Did the people who created those polls delete them (assuming deleting posts is allowed in those sub-boards)?

That gives me something to start with...knowing me I probably fat thumbed something while correcting email settings. *sigh*

Thanks again!

Welllll....somehow or another (I always blame fat fingering keyboard buttons....it makes me feel better)...my message pointers got out of whack. Resetting fixed the problem...

Appreciate the guidance nevertheless! :)

so ... I'm slow, I had always used the web UI for messages; today, I discovered the 'V' option when reading messages from a command shell LOL


My doctor said I have the body of a 25 year old ... and the mind of a 10 :-/
