You dont appear to be a Member? PATRICK

[Ken2]

For some time now I have not been able to email other members?  I have been a member since 2001.  I used to be able to email other members.  Is there a glitch?

I'm not sure I understand.  Are you saying you aren't allowed to see other member's e-mail addresses?  If that's the case, then it's probably because you don't have the PL cookie.  I haven't looked at the forum code in a while, but I think it checks for the cookie and if a valid password is contained in the cookie, it allows you to see the e-mail address of another member.

Do you have to enter your password to post?  If so, then you didn't have the cookie.  SInce you've now posted, you should now have the cookie (unless you have your browser set not to allow it).

I can see e mail address' its just when I attempt to mail them that it shows the "You dont appear to be a member" And yes I do have to enter my password everytime I post.  Not sure how to set my browser, this may be my problem.

You probably already know this, but you have to lower your "cookie guard" under tools/internet options/privacy to a medium high setting to retrieve a member's email address.  If it's at a higher setting you will get this error message: you don't appear to be a member.  Hope that helped.
