Q. I can't find a Community Network Member's email address in her profile. How can I email a fellow Community Network Member?
A. Yes, it's true, a Member's email address does not show up in their profile. This ensures privacy. However, you CAN send an email to any Community Network Member. At the top of each member's profile is a link that says email followed by their name. Clicking that creates a page that lets you type in a subject and the text to the member. If you have more than one email address listed in the Community Network, you can even specify which one to use in a reply to you. Once you have finished typing in your message (or pasting it in from a word processing or email program file) click Send Email and the message will go to your intended recipient.
Once you send a Member an email this way, YOUR email address is revealed to the recipient. So, you are not anonymous when you contact someone via the Community Network. Additionally, once you are participating in a Initiative, and email messages are going to all Members, their email addresses DO show up. So fellow Initiative participants can learn your email address if you post to the email list.
