Sorry, I really should know the answer to this   ::)

I can access my personal messages ok but where do I access the replies that I sent?

They don't seem to be where they were..... and I'm going round in circles trying to find them on my own.
Best wishes HL

Go to My Messages (top menu)

Then hover your cursor over 'messages' and you will see 'New message', 'Inbox' and 'Sent items'  :)

Thanks for replying JenB ;)

When I go to my messages on the top bar I have "read your messages" and "send a message" on the drop down. Am I in the wrong place or is it because I'm using my Kindle at the moment and not my laptop?

How did you find your sent messages?   Hovering over messages I only get 'read your messages' or 'send a message' too - this is on my main PC.

Feeling daft but just can't find them.

Forget that - have now found it.   However, should be more clearer I feel.

Finally saw a little black arrow on the right of the screen pointing left - when I clicked on that I then got a list come up on the left of the screen which includes sent messages.

Go to My Messages on top bar - shows "Read your messages" and "send messages" as suggested by Annette7.  Go to "Read your messages", and on the left are three options - Messages, Actions and Preferences.  If you click on Messages then you can access your "sent messages".
