So how does a whole bunch of messages "delete" from my inbox which I didn't personally delete?...

Travelling

Several reasons. Mails from people that leave the site might vanish. Not sure what happens if someone sends you mail then blocks you either...

No I hadn't logged on for about 2 months..but there were some messages that were there that I was supposed to reply to and can't remember who they were from now...

If someone messages and then blocks then the messages remain

I've not logged on for a while and now most of my messages have been deleted / I have loads of messages in my inbox and some of the older ones have gone missing

Fab is a super busy site. Hundreds of thousands of private mails are sent every day and we have tens of millions of such messages on our system. Because we do this mostly for free, we can't keep all the messages for ever because our costs would go up and up and the site would get slower and slower. Older messages that have already been read in "dormant" accounts that haven't been logged into for a while are removed from the system. Similarly if you have loads of mails in your inbox, the system will periodically remove some of the oldest.

If some mails are important to you and you want to make sure they're not deleted, become a site supporter and save any important mails to your "saved message folder" (look for "save it" on the bottom of messages you receive) and we'll keep those mails on the system (unless we screw things up and they get deleted too; but we'll try not to!).

That will be why especially if site support runs out too

Yes to becoming a site supporter to save messages (that fiver goes a long way). I am intrigued by the way messages dissapear, I can't see any pattern to it. Also you say read messages are deleted, but on a couple occasions I've left messages unread to reply to "later" and they went before the read ones.
