It can be. I've just started using capitalisation for the M because it does (apparently) look more professional and I like it like that.

Okay, just to try and explain why this happens in Firefox.

The URL for your inbox folder of pm's is private.php.

When you send a PM it is doing a POST to the web server where the form fields are posted and hidden from the URL. A get request would show the form fields in the URL it was submitting to.

Firefox obviously determines back/refresh/forward links by the URL in the address bar, which for the inbox and the sending POST would simply be 'private.php'. Therefore firefox thinks when you are redirected to your inbox after sending a PM that it is actually just the same page.

It's hard to grasp, but i'm fairly sure thats what the issue is as you will notice it also does it to some of the usercp pages when taken back to your summary page and it is the only thing which makes sense.
