Babettegall Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Hi Everyone,I'm hoping you can help me out here. I'm trying to figure out how to better familiarize myself with the forum/website we have here. The trouble is, I'm not very savvy when it comes to moving around and figuring out how to communicate "correctly" when posting.I've tried sending a couple of PM's, (personal message, right?) to a couple of you, but not sure if I sent them correctly. Then there's the option of emailing....... what would be the difference? Are there times you can PM someone and not others? Is it only when they are "online"? Okay, so now you ALL know, that in addition to being very POTSy........ I'm also technologically challenged. Don't hold it agains me, please! LOLThanks for listening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoGiuliana Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 BabsYes, a PM is a personal message. The difference is that if you send a PM the user must go to their inbox on the DINET forum to read the message. An e-mail will reveal your (the sender's) e-mail address and the message will go to the user's e-mail address. The person you e-mail will not have to go to DINET to read or respond to your message. Don't send an e-mail unless you are comfortable with that person getting your e-mail address.You can PM someone any time. If they are not on-line at the time, the message will be sitting and waiting for them--they will be notified they have a message via e-mail from the forum.Hope this clarifies things!Katherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
