Gameplay tips & tricks

[Alienboy]

I was wondering if someone could tell me,..

Do fleets of fighters help the happiness of a systems population get better?
Also, I have been told of a bug that affects messages you send to other players. If you reply to messages first and then spend the next few days playing and saving your turn, your messages don't get sent,.. or something like that. I now do my messages last but I have started to wonder why my intel projects fail against a races with next to no intel points?? Is there a similar bug which affects Intel projects?
