DocNeon:
So all of a sudden I CAN NOT send replies to messages to either ones I receive or ones that I initiate. Text types in ok, I hit SEND, looks like its' going but it just never goes thru. Any Advice? Thanks
Here's the workaround with Chrome. Type your reply, then, highlight your reply and copy it to the clipboard. Next, scroll down and click the "messages" button instead of send. When you get to the messages screen, instead of clicking the message to open it, to the right there's this 3/4 circle with an arrow (for quick reply). It' to the left of the "X", delete message. A message box will open. Paste your reply and click the send button. It works!
I know it's a work-around ... but it seems to be better than the alternative.
