Can not send Messages to Hosts

[Nadia827]

I am trying to send messages to hosts just to make sure the date are available and to learn more about properties.

After pressing the "send" button the page is thinking for 2 seconds and bringing me back to unsent message.

Is it a feature or a bug? Is there a limit to the number of messages can be sent? My husband has sent about 10 messages today already, and can not send any more. I managed to send only 1 so far.

I have tried different accounts, different browsers and different devices. 

This is the error message on iPad:

What is going on, guys? I am still receiving messages though.

"you can only send 25 messages within any 24-hour period":

@Nadia827  Why would you need to ask if dates are available? Available dates are visible on the host's calendar.

It's fine to ask questions before committing to a booking, but sending out 25 inquiries isn't. You are just wasting  24 hosts' time answering you, when you aren't going to book but one.

Please be respectful and do not send tons of inquiries out unless you are serious about perhaps booking a listing. 2 or 3 should be plenty.
