Problems sending a personal email
« on: Friday 22 October 10 11:47 BST (UK) »
Can I make a plea for the greyed-out area where the personal email address is not to be quite so greyed out? My old eyes are not what they were, and I'm having to guess a lot of the time what the email address might be :(

Personal email addresses are not shown on RC.   You have to use the Personal Message (PM) system to communicate with other members

Click on the little green scroll under the persons name on the left hand side of the screen

If you are using other websites - some "grey out" members email addresses to prevent spamming

Thank you very much! And, yes, I'm an idiot,  :-[ Didn't realise the green scroll allowed me to send a personal email to a forum poster. That'll teach me to read all the instructions!
