Private Messenger enables you to send private notes to other community members. Private Messenger has two big advantages over email:

You don't have to know the other member's email address to send your message. (Also, you don't have to reveal yours.)
You can read and send private messages without leaving the community, making it easy to connect in conversation with another community member.

To use the Private Messenger, you must be registered and signed in. You'll see your avatar at the top of your page. If you have any new messages or notifications, you'll see the number of unread messages and/or notifications next to your avatar.

To read your private messages:

1. Click your avatar to expand the menu options.

2. Click Messages.
