The sent tab displays messages sent by the user, including messages that are in the process of proof of work. Example: Sending a message to 8 people will generate the exact same message 8 times in the "Sent" tab. A message can be dedicated to multiple people but the protocol supports only one receiving address per message. The "Send" tab is used to compose new private or Broadcast messages.

PyBitmessage can be downloaded from the Main Page, either as Windows binary or as source from github. It is usually abbreviated "Bitmessage", causing confusion between the protocol and the client. To overcome this, it is suggested to make use of TOR while using Bitmessage.PyBitmessage is the official client, used as protocol reference. The creator of the service notes that entities with access to an Internet backbone connection or access to network traffic from both Bitmessage clients, may be able to identify your location or you. To remain anonymous, do not post any personally identifiable information in your messages. It is also important to note that recent posts get published on the frontpage of the service, so do not use this for private messages (use Bitmessage direct for that). HTML is not supported, which leaves you with plain text and paragraphs, but nothing else. It needs to be noted that this is a basic blogging service.
