the Messenger has 900 million monthly active users, Facebook announced, and the vast majority do not know you have a second mailbox. There are messages that will stop the folder ‘message Order’, which was hidden ‘next’ box for incoming messages.
Who uses Facebook is more than used to the Messenger, the messaging service instant that the company launched in a second phase, as an application. What not all (the vast majority, in fact) know is that right next to the folder ‘Messaging’, which aggregates messages sent and received, is the ‘message requests’ folder, which can have messages … received.
When it was launched, it was in this folder (which was then called ‘Other’) falling messages sent by users that were not part of the network of friends.

And which is called, precisely, ‘filtered Order’
When Facebook came to announce that the Messenger passed the barrier of 900 million monthly active users, party motives quickly gave way to criticism. After all, how can so many millions use a service without ever having noticed that there are messages (which may be important) to be filtered to a hidden folder?

Do not think that the problem only affected those who had walked 'distracted': there was even technology journalists like Daniel Emery who were victims of this filtering of messages. It was precisely to investigate the 'hidden folder' that the journalist got to know through a real friend with whom he had no friends on Facebook, the death of a mutual friend two months before.
If these messages are hidden, how the user can read the? You must open the box, following three simple steps:. Click on the icon of the messages, change the folder (by clicking on) "Order messages" and finally select (by clicking) "View requests filtered '
