Non-friends on Facebook aren't getting my messages?

[Scott]

Someone at college who i'm not facebook friends with sent me a message and I never received it on the facebook.com site. But, when I signed in to facebook mobile on my phone, I noticed I could read it on that.

If you have a mobile which allows you to use the internet, go to m.facebook.com (facebook's mobile website), sign in there and send the messages from there.

If not, then if you know their email addresses, email them instead. Sometimes on facebook, you can view a user's email even if you're not friends with them. Just go to their info page. Even if it's a @facebook.com email address which facebook seems to be rolling out, you can still send emails to those addresses from an email provider such as Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo! etc...

I think everyone has troubles with the facebook messaging/chat system. It's rubbish since they updated it all!
