Malcolm,

I've deleted them for you, I'll ask the Tech bloke to see what caused that problem.

If you are logged in - you can always delete your own posts which are displayed on forum.

Me too - I got that strange debug error message a couple of times.

What I did was :
1) close the forum browser page
2) hum the first 2 lines of "Greensleeves"
3) re-enter the forum and look for my last posting
4) and there it was !

Hi Anders,

I think what causes the error is that somebody in the message thread who had email notification for new posts has put a wrong email address in their profile, (mispelt domain name most likely) causing an error when the board tries to send their email notification. It may be a known bug in the forum software. (It should fail gracefully in this situation)

If you have admin rights, perhaps try looking up the notification email address for each person in the thread where it happened and see if one has an obviously incorrect email address.

Also by the way we cannot in fact delete our own messages. Here is what I see at the bottom of the forum:

--------
You can post new topics in this forum
You can reply to topics in this forum
You can edit your posts in this forum
You cannot delete your posts in this forum
You can vote in polls in this forum
--------

Regards,
Simon

This is intended to be deleted - I just want to see if I can do it from edit - as I could on the 'Pink' forum.

In fact it seems the option isn't there on this one.
