MySpace

I know i've asked this question before but I only got one answer which was a bit vague.

When sending someone an instant message via their profile, do they receive an e-mail notifying them, or do they only receive it when they access the site?

I know it's a bit of an obscure question but its too long-winded for me to state the reasons for asking.

Thanks.

What was vague about it? If someone sends me a message via myMyspace profile, I get an email telling me that I have a message from whoever it was.

I get the email whether or not I have logged into MySpace.

Ok thanks, but it's just in the previous answer you put "should get an email" rather than "you do get an email".

I just needed to be quite certain as to what happens.

the instant messaging service can only be used when both people are online. Its like msn, its real time chat. You get a little window pop up and off you go.

As for actual messages yeah you get an email if you have the notifications switched on.
