The workings of phpBB

Just a quick question.

When I send a private message, it stays in the "Outbox". Is that the right behaviour, and when does it move to sent messages?
(In an e-mail program this would indicate that the message is waiting to be sent, but I find no further option to initiate the actual transfer.)

It stays in your outbox until the recipient opens and reads it, then it becomes 'sent'.
That gives you the opportunity to edit it at any time, as well.

As I suspected, but seemed a bit strange compared to what I'm used to.
Thank you.

I sometimes think that e-mails would be better that way.
