How to send a message?

Post by Steve Jelf » Sat Aug 30, 2025 5:13 pm

Apparently my age and my TBI are making me helpless.
How can I send an email or a PM to a forum member?

Look at the upper right corner this page. See the tiny magnifying glass ? Click on it. You’ll see a rectangle box ‘Search for Author’. Enter the forum member’s name then scroll down to the ‘Search’ box and click on it. Sometimes a forum member will use a nom de plum as in the case of John Tannehill. He goes by JTT3. You’d enter that. There you’ll see the person’s name and all the posts hes made. Below that you’ll see 2 prompts: ‘Send an Email’ and ‘Send a PM’.Now click on what you desire….

Steve, you can go to the upper LEFT corner: Quick Links. Click on Members, then on the letter of the alphabet of the person you want,FIRST name, then you can send them a message.
The names are listed by the date they joined MTFCA, NOT alphabetical.

What George said, or find a post from that person and click on their name. It doesn't matter if they're online or not.
