Lets say you enter "talk" and participate in a discussion with someone. They leave takl, but you want to tell them something. If you enter email you can send them a "private" message. Were you to send them a message on any of the other boards, then we could all read it, i.e. no privacy. Conversely, people can send you private messages on the email board. Here's anothe little lesson. Notice that this base is named "yabbs Bugs?" That means that the sysop wants us to talk about buggs in his yabbs program on this board, i.e., not the e-mail board. However, don't feel dumb. It's important to ask questions like this. -laelth
