I just got this error trying to send a second private message to someone? Anyone else ever see this?
After posting this, I went back and hit send, and it went through?
I will ask @AndrewK to look into this, but you should be able to send a private message up to 5 people.
I have done this without error.
Thank you for letting us know!
Maybe it's a permissions thing. You weald the power. By the way, this was different from the number of people. This was the number of messages sent. I had reached my limit during a certain duration?
I double checked, and Jaime-Lee is right. You should be able to send 5 private messages per minute. You should also be able to send a single private message to 6 recipients.
Were you cut off before that? If so, I can look into this further.
As for the number of recipients, I replied to the other post on that.
I had hit send once or twice on the failed post before deleting every recipient but one. I then started another message to the other recipient when I was hit by the error message about the number of messages sent.
2 (maybe 3 fails)
1 success
1 errored out.
I've hit this too occasionally. Just have to wait a few minutes and then try again.
