 My idea would be female Platycheirus sp., mybe P. albimanus because I think I see greyish abdominal spots. Do you have more pictures?

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
