At one time isn't it true that when you sent a PM it went out as an email to the person? I seem to remember that I used to get emails that said sent from the EC-12 website. Now it is obvious that that is no longer the system in place.

I like that idea as I hardly ever check my PMs on this site.

Click on your user name and on the lower left you will see where to click to send a private message. It is still working and in use instead of chat here on the forum, which we do not wish to have. Works great but you need to know the others user name and select it from the Member search menu about if it is not present on the forum by a post.
