So I altered the code to write out the list of names who it was PMing and also the state of the PM error variable, then ran it again. It would appear that three of the batchs were never sent out because of errors. The errors returned for me were;


PM error: The following users were not found:

1. Soonto&quot
2. HAS&quot
3. soop

This users name is actually 'Soonto"HAS"soop'.


PM error: The following users were not found:

1. SC &amp
2. RX

This users name is 'SC & RX'


PM error: The following users were not found:

1. Matt &quot
2. Aero top&quot

This user being 'Matt "Aero top"'


So it would appear usernames containing " or & can stop an entire batch of PMs being sent, the bigger the batch the more users who don't receive the PM.


Does anyone know a solution to this as (for me at least) if I can fix this I should be able to mass PM everyone successfully.
