Default HELP! Can\'t reply to Messages in PBW

I'm pretty sure I uploade a current turn in Newbie Gold Last turn, but hey I know I can be wrong.
Anyway, all orders are changed. I can live with that.
But I can't reply to Messages sent to me, I can't view gifts.
I get the reply "Message already sent" when I try to send a message.
It doesn't matter if I reuppack the turn and reload!
And I have never replied to any Messages this turn!

What to do?

Ah well, that's just the fog of war, sometimes a commader just doesn't know what the ship's captains are doing.

Just kidding, I don't really know what happened.

Oh I got your reply to my diplomacy message, and rest assured my vengence for your curt snub will be swift and severe.

Just kidding ... maybe ...

[EDIT]

Whoo hoo ... I got my commision! And on a fluff post too. Wait, wadda ya mean I have to pay for my uniform, I always got it free before?!

I've seen something like that in a recent game.
IIRC it goes like that:

Turn 1: Player B offers me a gift
Turn 2: I see the gift and attepmt to accept it.
But I fail to upload the correct file, so AI plays in my turn. AI for some reason decides to refuse the gift.
Turn 3: Player B recives the refusal message.
I can see the message ofering the gift again (that's nice in case I had actually missed the turn), but I can't reply it or even send another message because there is "message sent" in the politics window.

I have occured the same problem. AI did my turn though I'm sure I uploaded my turn file.

I decided to turn off the AI so it can't cancel my treaties and change ship orders. You can turn AI off from Empire Status/Ministers/AI should not make... which is at the bottom of the window.

I also thought I had uploaded my turn, but since none of the things I tried to make that turn was made, my conclusion was that I must had uploaded a wron (older) turn file.

If you have your ministers on it is a completely diferent problem; the politics minister answers Messages before you play.

When I check the History page on the PBW site for the game, it says I've uploaded!

Well, some things one isn't meant to know, I guess.
