Bob,
I've never experienced this problem here, whenever I lose a message at PB it's generally because in my haste to post, I close the window before confirming it. I do have this problem at egroups occasionally. I'll go back to edit and get a page expired/timed out message. It only seems to happen when I access using IE.
