When trying to view sent items in "my messages" it gives an error: Database error, Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator.
I don't know how to contact the administrator or know what caused it.
Tried searching for similar problems in the forum and it all said not to use non-ASCII characters.
I believe I didn't use any non ASCII character on the message. Now I don't know if the message is not sent or if it is just not visible to me.

It's probably because you have a unicode (non ascii) character in your message.
Unfortunately, the forum does not accept some unicode chars.

So make sure the message is all ascii.
Sorry about that.
