I logged in today to find that a couple of the messages from my In Box had disappeared.  I know I didn't delete them.

Is this some server snafu, such as when recent Friend additions were lost? Has this happened to anyone else? Has this already been discussed a dozen times today?

Hasn't happened to me, but maybe you'll have better luck in responses if you post in the Site Related Discussion forum...

I think it will disappear if the other person in the conversation deletes it.

I've had it happen once (that I'm aware of) a while back and that's what I was thinking too, but I have some really old messages lying around that I'm surprised the other person wouldn't have deleted.

Is there a limit to the number of messages you can have lying around?

Messages originated by the other person go away when they leave MM.

That's not true, at least for me. I still have messages from people who are no longer here.

Are they ones you originated or did they?  I've had messages from one person who left disappear wth the exception of the ones that I was the originator of.  The messages she originated and sent to me are gone.

This happened to a model I was emailing a while back and she found out what happened in the site discussion forum.

I delete messages from my MM box that are general chit chat and dont contain info I need. She and I were basically chit chatting via our MM message box. I deleted them.I did this a couple times then noticed her asking why mails were disappearing. I asked her about it, she said it was my messages that were leaving.

Turns out if one participant in a message exchange here deletes the message they exchanged, it disappears from the other persons in box,too.If I am not mistaken it goes into their trash.
