To answer my own question, I got a response so the message got there -- it's still not showing up in my Sent folder or in confirmation status. Puzzling. Any info is appreciated.

You may want to check that box, and it should solve your problem (if that box is already checked, then there's some issue with the board software that I'm not competent to diagnose).
2) At the bottom of the PM reply edit window there are a number of checkboxes labeled "Miscellaneous Options". One of those option checkboxes is labled "Save a copy of this message in your Sent Items folder". Make sure that's checked, too (though it should be checked if you've checked the "Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default" box in the User Control Panel).
If both those are checked, I don't know what the issue is.
Good luck!
