Forum Mail Question

I was talking to Ron a few weeks ago and I asked him when he was bringing the auto fill feature from LIW over here, and he said it was already over here. Chat Icon I told him mine didn't work and he said that didn't make sense. I told him that I knew it didn't work for other people either.

So, the question is, when you use forum mail, does the name of the recipient auto fill or do you have to type in the entire name???

Re: Forum Mail Question

At work using FireFox it works. At home using Firefox it doesn't. I'm sure its a cookie thing, I just haven't cared enough to look into it.

I have no idea. I rarely send one by having to type the person's name. I will either find one from them and reply, or use my friend's list and send one by clicking the link under their profile.

It doesn't auto fill unless I have sent that person an FM before...I think thats with anything though...unless you have inserted the information into the field previously it won't work automatically.

It doesn't work for me and I have my auto-complete settings enabled on my IE.

I wonder if theres anything else I need to do.

That is what Ron suggested, but it NEVER works for me on LIF, regardless of who I am trying to send an FM to.
