Sorry, just noticed that there is an [Email This Member] button when looking over a person's profile
IF they have opted to receive messages through the Forum.
Sorry, when checking on how to contact some people, and looking at their profiles, I guess that was not turned on for them. I suppose they opted out.
I withdraw this suggestion.
(still learning, after all this time...)
Sometimes I have wanted to contact, or be contacted by, someone here in the Forums. As it is now, unless I'm missing something, I don't see any way to externally (not through actual posted messages) contact another user.
What has happened, typically, if for someone to post an email or IM name, and contact that way. Of course, that exposes that person to spam and other nasties, since anyone else here could see that info as well.
What I would like to see is for some method to send an email, via the Forum, to any registered user. The Forum knows the email name of everyone here, and I would not want that info to be open for anyone to see. The link would just send an email from user1 to user2 using the registered email names, with the info never being exposed.
That possible?
