So i've pm'd a senior member a few times and everytime he responds with my quoted text, the name on the reply is mine.  So it looks like i pm'd myself.  Ive qsked him to post a reply in one of my other topics rather than sending a pm, but so far he has not.

Just curious how or why this happens.
Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

You are confusing the "Sent to" field and quotes. Example: :

You can:
a) Quote the words of the person that sent you a message when responding (press the Quote button rather than Reply).
b) Quote anyone from anywhere and send that quote within a PM (they have no authenticity verification and can be spoofed).
c) Send a PM to yourself and other parties are the same time.
