How to Find Your Posts
 The question recently came up about how to find your past posts. Go to: My account>forum profile>profile info>show posts>messages

Similarly, if you look at your profile info, you will see "Show Drafts".  That's where the autosaved copies of your posts-in-progress go.  So if you ever have a problem where something goes wrong while you're posting, check there and you'll likely find most of your hard work saved for you.

(For draft PMs, you have to go into My Messages -> Messages -> Show Drafts)

Michelle is so right. I find that i am surprised how many drafts of posts accumulate for some reason. Perhaps because as I am writing a post I sometimes go to another tab in my browser for reference, then come back and complete writing. In any case, I look up my drafts every once in while to clean them out.

Many times it's because you start a response, then go "oh, never mind" and back up in your browser or go to another page.  Just in case your leaving in the middle of typing was accidental (like a "fat finger" on the keyboard), the forum tries to save your work for you.
