Evidently when you delete a PM from your email it deletes the PM on the site that or I am hitting the wrong buttons again. I sent an old browning wood compound was supposed to be the kids first bow but it broke. I do not recall the member I sent it to and I feel bad about that. Please PM me I have another unused bow but it is modern.
You said you deleted it from your email which was the notification part of it. If you click on the message icon at top of page next to notifications, then click show all is it not there? Deleting an email should not delete anything from the forum, but if it is old enough it may not be seen when scrolling over or one clicking the messages icon.
It was a regular poster and I feel stupid for not remembering. I may wake up at 3:30 tomorrow and remember.
If not, set your alarm for 4:30 and every hour thereafter. Nothing else you'll drive yourself further insane
