Be sure that your chat is set up to show you the red error messages, because if the person you tried to send a tell to is in a Duty they can't receive your tell at all (not even for the sake of being able to reply to it later). Similarly, if you did leave them one successfully but they didn't reply (due to being AFK, perhaps) they may try to reply later and you're in a Duty and can't receive their response. Oops.
Yeah, the no-tells-in-Duty is a pain in the butt. It's nice in principle, to keep people focused while they're in a dungeon group, except that they can still chat in linkshells and Free Company chat, so it kinda fails. It'd be nice if they added a "tells inbox" that would cause all your Duty-intercepted tells to show up as soon as you get out, though.
If you try a tell and get no reply at all, think about sending them a mail or something.
