Limit in sending messages?

[Baalz]

In a couple MP games I'm in I'm sending many items back and forth to allies. After sending 20 items the message count ("20 messages sent") stops incrementing, remaining at 20 but the items still disappear from my inventory for additional messages. I've seen someone elsewhere suggest there is a limit to how many items that can be sent. My items past 20 aren't just being destroyed, are they?

I have to say, I have just assumed there is a 20 message, item transfer limit.

So I would like to know if you can transfer more as well.

I've gone over that limit when I'm about to put myself on AI. Not sure if those items ever got through though .

Same here, but I heard afterwards that some of the items sent did not arrive.

I'm not sure if you can send more than 20 if you send them to more than one nation, but I think 20 is the hardcoded limit.
