Integrated with the message boards is a private messaging system. If you are a registered member and logged in you can send and receive private messages to and from other members.
How to access your inbox
1. In the upper Spacedock banner your pm status will show as; "Hey, your username, you have x messages, x are new." This is a link you press it and your inbox will display your messages.
2. At the bottom of the index page in the Info Centre there is a count of how many messages you have and how many are new. This is a link - you press it and your inbox will display your messages.
My inbox
When you have entered your inbox you may read your messages, reply to them, write new ones, delete messages, enter your outbox and change your preferences.
How to write a message to someone
1. Go into your inbox and choose new message, write in the username to be the receiver. (Some members may use a different name on the board than there username).
2. Click on the Instant message icon of the receiver in a post the receiver has written (it is one of the icons above the post count in the post).
3. Look at the members profile and press the link "Send this member a private message".
4. Open a message from the person you want to pm and press the reply button.
Remember to delete old messages in both the in- and outbox, it takes up server space otherwise.
