I sent a PM to a member, and had a response.  

 

Tried to reply but Lithium tell me "One or more of these members doesn't have PM's enabled.  Their names have been removed from the send to list".  First time I tried there was supposed to be invalid HTML in there??  What HTML??

 

I just tried to send another with just 'testing' as the message - but the red error bits came up again.

 

Can anyone explain why?

I've had that HTML message show up if I've copied a picture, or copied and pasted something into the text box. It says that it's changed whatever, but there are no changes. Sometimes it removes coloured text, or lines, if you've copied something from the help pages. If you hit the post button a second time, it should post OK.

I clicked 'send message' more than once.  And what it does is remove the member's id.

 

No I didn't do a photo thing, but yes, in the end I copied my message to Word so I didn't have to type it again.

 

But now I can't even send a NEW message just saying 'testing'.  I get the red error message as per my post above.

 

Maybe one of the diligant Lithium moderators could step in here to explain the problem and help me get it sorted.

The thing is that the  original PM was sent about 2 hours ago, reply maybe an hour ago.  

 

Both parties have PM's enabled, so it shouldn't have become a problem.

I regularly get PMs from members, so I know I have messages enabled.
