Thanks for your message, I've just looked at my Ancestry account and found numerous messages that I had not been notified about, I hope that I have now amended my account accordingly. Like you I had been thinking how rude not even to acknowledge my message, now tomorrow I'll have to go through them all and apologise!

Anyway once again thanks for bringing it to my and others attention.

Hi everyone  
For over 2 years I have had problems with this part of Ancestry.com/.co.uk.

Some/lots of messages I send to other users of Ancestry never find their way into their 'INBOX' - in fact they can only be found,  by the recipient, by using search methods even then you have to know from whom they came or what they are about.  The recipient does not receive an email informing them that have been sent a message either.

Despite innumerable queries raised by many, not only me, they are not correcting the problem.

It 'may' be that the subscribers who have had an upgrade to the Message Service do not have a problem.  But to those of us who haven't had the upgrade or have and maybe still have the problem, we will never know if our messages got thru to their intended recipient., unless we receive a reply - we are left wondering  if ............
I have wondered if the upgraded version cannot 'converse' with the non-upgraded version and vice versa.

Hope I've made this make sense.

Regards
Sheila
