PIMbackup sending out ghost text.

its not hard to figure out. you probably backed up "messages" & when you did that, i assume there were some messages in the "outbox" that hadn't sent yet. so when u restore them, the phone sends them as you would expect it to.

that should help some of you

Same thing just happened to me! Getting a dozen texts like "Huh?!??" or "And just what is that supposed to mean??" or "Hahhaha" as replies from numbers I can't identify b/c PIMbackup is in the process of restoring at 2am... awesome. I'm now staying in flight mode whenever I restore =) Am rather suspicious there were so many msgs in 'Outbox' but will check.
