sounds really odd. I can't say I have ever come across that phenomenon before !!

Maybe it was meant to be like that

"You click to read it, and find that all there is there is just your original message that you sent out and a BLANK REPLY."

Maybe they meant not to reply. It could possibly be the interweb equivalent of Return to Sender or like those who send the junk mail back to the sender in the reply envelopes.
No one is obliged to reply to messages received either pm or email.
Yes, it is nice to try to contact other Buffers but some are not interested.
As we have stated on ITB before it is each members prerogative to reply or not.

How many times have you checked your IN BOX which tells you that there is a message waiting to be read. You click to read it, and find that all there is there is just your original message that you sent out and a BLANK REPLY.

Makes you wonder what those folks meant to say to you, but didn't All those lost contacts!

What did the old Post Office Advert say? Someone, somewhere is waiting for a letter from you! Change 'Letter' to 'Email' and it fits. Of course we have another sunny day in prospect so lets go outside away from Computers.
