Email problem?

Post by bsharp2 »

Hi,
I have tried to contact a OGFB member, without success.
The anticipated copy of this was not received by me.
I sent myself a test mail from the site, but again nothing received.
I Clicked on: User Control Panel - Drafts/Inbox/Outbox/Sent - nothing recorded.

Tried looking for a way of checking my listed email on the site(Not been changed by me for a long time) but could not find a way to do this.

The contact via email can fail for various reasons. You can use the Personal Message (PM) system built into the site. You can access it from the link in the header at the top right of every page on the site or via your user control panel. Add the members site user name into the add recipient box, give your message a title then put your message post in the box below then send when you are done. The recipient will be flagged when they are next on the site and the notification will remain until the message is read.
I will send you a short PM to demonstrate.

Oh, forgot to mention you can see the email address you set up if you go to "manage profile" in your user control panel.

The PM system is totally independent and does not use email.
