Is the msg I sent enough

Buyer paid promptly for an item at night, I sent him a msg thanking him for his prompt payment and advised item would be posted the following day from my location.  Feedback was left at the same time.  I have tonight received a msg from him wanting to know if item has been posted.  Is the first msg enough or should I be confirming the following day item has been posted.  I personally just like to recieve a msg saying if or when item will be posted.
