nepomuk.... thanks for the "insight." (tijiji)
as for question #2, i didn't explain it very well, i guess. didn't know the right words. with this thread, i can see our posts sequentially. in reading visitors messages, i can click on "view conversation," and see my posts and theirs in sequence. in private messages, however, i can only look at my posts, or the other person's posts, but can't get them all on the...Leave a comment:

all, i found the messages saved box, and know how to get there again. and now, surprise, surprise, i also know where my "sent" letters are. so questions #3 and #4, are essentially answered.
but don't know if there is an outbox, yet. chanitaLeave a comment:

"mail" questions
very much a novice -- being new to this forum, and new to forums in general, i have a number of questions. how do i find:
1. the "how do i" pages, without hunting and pecking. where is a place that lists what's in those pages? when i search, i always get a message that some one of my words is too short, so can't find the pages of instructions i am looking for.
2. a course of conversation, in its entirety,... -
just found your note. can't quite figure out this system, yet, finding inboxes, outboxes, sent messages....... ..woopie 2 U 2, sambacat. -
ps. if i offended your sense of protocol, the other day, by asking how the privacy issue worked, i deeply apologize. it was not my intent to abuse the use of private messages. i am not looking for you to answer questions about computer problems "for free," as it were. that type of posting is for the general forum, where i will be happy to get whatever help you offer. for here, i want forum friendship. sambacat -
okay, i have just found the way to see both sides of our conversation at the same time.
i am interested to know which to which part of the definition of friendship you subscribe, and to which parts you don't. sambacat -
kenobewan, i wrote to you recently, i think, but don't see a copy of it. or do i only get to see messages from other people here.
in any event, i don't think i asked for any help, so i'm not sure why you sent the note that you did, unless this was meant as a forewarning.
oh, did i ask about the privacy thing? i know i've been asking about that on several forums. if i did, and if that exceeds your protocols of friendship,... -
[I always assume that nothing on the internet is private, even if people say it is.]
I only subscribe to part of the definition of friendship on Friendship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and unsubscribe from other parts I disagree with.
I have found that when some friends want help with their computers they are quick to ask for help, but when I need help with the something else they are slow to answer. Its called... -
sorry, i've been tied up with this problem, and another more pressing one, and haven't been able to write. i will get back to this in the next couple of days. hang on, hang in, and don't "divorce" me, please. sambacatLeave a comment:

kenobewan, i see a new message from you. i had no notice that it was recieved, in my mailbox, so i'm sorry that it got ignored. but it appears in my profile. it doesn't appear in the two notes we had exchanged before that.
it was woopie, have fun. i don't know what that refers to... and i'm not having fun the last few days, dealing with two somewhat major (to me) computer problems. but other than that, i'm enjoying the show. ... -
okay, good to know i won't lose things.
now, i'm running into trouble making the transfer. oh, first, my pc uses windows vista, and i'm trying to export from yahoo to gmail, or import into gmail from yahoo, following their individual instructions.
i have tried it both as an xslx, and as a csv.
the file name appears in the "browse" window, then i click on import (or export, depending which way...Leave a comment:

nepomuk and numberwhun... i AM asking about private messages, which is what i thought i was sending, but are showing up under "visitor messages" in the sendee's profile. will check out your instructions in a little bit, jeff.
thanks, both, for your support..... sambacatLeave a comment:

It was you who reached out your hand. I am merely reciprocated :). -
private messages
2 questions:
when someone becomes a friend, it seems posts are seen by everyone looking at one's profile page? so how private is that?
last week i was asking about adding a signature to my profile, and it was suggested that i send a PM to one of the administrators. how do i do that?
thank you, sambacat -
markus, i am pleased to call you my friend. sambacat -
kenobewan, just found this.... i'm pleased to be your friend. sambacat -
import/export address book
i have opened a second e-mail address, and want to get a copy of my contacts list in the first one, into the second one.
i have read the instructions provided by the new server, and i think i can follow them. but before i try it, i need to know:
will i lose the entries in my contacts list in the one account when i migrate them? or will there be the complete list in each account?
thanks, sambacat -
signature
i totally agree that people don't need to go overboard -- well, they do need it, but we don't need for them to do it.
and i can see why they are not included in the posts. but why not on the profile page? sambacatLeave a comment:
