Is anyone else having problems sending mail on Myspace? Nothing of mine's getting through and my Sent folder is empty. :(

Haven't sent anything in several days, but have had no problems.

The myspace servers often have these sort of problems as so many people use the site. If the database takes too long to respond it will say '0 messages' or give no information on the page. Try refreshing, or checking the page again in an hour. It usually sorts itself out (if it doesn't, their advertisers get pretty ticked off and the site loses money for it).

My personal favorite is "Sorry, an unexpected error has occurred".

Still not as irritating as the SQL errors that were on WP a while back, before the servers here were upgraded.

That's what you get with professional coders I guess.

There's too few quality coders these days. Really frustrating having to deal with bugs in practically every piece of software I use - especially bad on cellphones in my experience. :(

It's strange, the problem has been ongoing for months now, refreshing or waiting doesn't make any difference either. I've mailed them twice and all they have to say is, "we're aware of the problem, please be patient".
