Is that still the original poster? IP address has changed... (it's easy to create a user acct here ;) )
And yes, as Navegante said, there is no other restriction than the role/status and the time between msgs, which is rather long, several hours, but not days. I just checked in my Coop, and the feature can't be turned off either.
So, what do you see when you click on the little envelope in your Coop window?
Yes my fault, it's been such a long time since I left a message in the in box ,I forgot you have to tap the envelope first. So how many messages can I leave before they start to disappear ?
Sorry, your question is not clear to me - I thought you wanted to write a 5th "msg to all" after having sent 4, and it didn't let you? Therefore I was asking for the precise msg about it that you get.
Now you are asking (again, I see that), how long until a msg in the inbox disappears? has nothing to do with writing a new one? - you do mean "write" with "leave", yes? (sorry, not native English speaker here) - If you describe more clearly what you are trying to do, we could maybe help better :)
I can tell you that the system msgs apparently don't disappear - I have a dump notification there, for example, that is 592 days old. But an invitation I got to another Coop, vanished lately - I think a friend told me later sthg about 90 days - maybe someone else can answer this more precisely.
So there might be a difference between self-written (outgoing) and incoming, and in any case, system msgs.
ETA: or, reading the later posts, maybe it is just that system msgs seem to stay longer, when/cos there is not much mailing action.
After a while messages dissapear from your inbox. Both system notifications that let you know you've been kicked from a coop/restricted from regatta/etc, and coop members messages. It used to be the case that the newest coop invitations you get in your inbox wouldn't show up until you erased the old ones (to make space)... i don't know if the same applies to messages. I have some very old system notifications (454 days old), but then it jumps to just a week ago... i think it's a bug... those old notifications are from an older version of the game and got stuck there in some update. Coop messages last at least 6d12h, judging by the oldest one i can see in my inbox.
I have 20 in my inbox. My oldest message was over 700 days old until I sent a test message which pushed the oldest message out. Now my oldest message is 644 days old. All of the messages in my inbox are co-op announcements.
ah, I counted now and have 20, too. Including one invitation, 2 or 3 written by ppl, the rest is system. But the invitation that vanished lately, was not on any end of the msgs (not the first, not the last); so they are different. As mentioned, I was told that invitations expire after some time.
