Private emails?

Question

I wish to send a member in my Yahoo Group a private email WITHOUT posting the message to all, how?

Answer 1

Well, I would say to post publically for them to email you their email, but since you don't accept emails that makes it hard if they don't accept emails.

You may have to open yourself up to emails and then post asking them to email you. After they email you, you could close it back up. However, since you don't really know if its them, o well, this just gets complicated.

Answer 2

Send a message as you send a normal person. Write his / her address to the TO / BCC / CC sections of the composed text. Here is some more info:

Answer 3

I believe you click on their profile & see if they accept email. If so you will see a link that says send email. Good Luck.

Answer 4

Ask the person for their email address, perhaps?

Answer 5

well you can ask him whats their email adress.

Answer 6

click the persons name and then look for the button that says "send e-mail" on their page. but if they decided not to receive e-mails then you won't be able to contact them

Answer 7

If you are the group's owner or moderator, there are two ways to do this.

1) Sign in to the group.

Click on Members to go to member's list.

Locate member to which you want to send private email.

Underneath member's name, click "Send Message".

This will pull up a new blank email on your private email program and will include the member's email address.

Complete the email and click Send.

The message will be addressed only to the member and will show it came from your personal email address.  It would be wise to Add Group name in the Subject line so the member will not delete it thinking it's spam.

(The message will not be posted on the group site.)

2)   If you want to reply to a message posted on the group site, sign in to the group and click to the message in question.

At top of message, click Reply.

To the right of the "To:"  blank field, click on the down arrow and select the member's name/email address.

Then complete your message to the member and Click Send.

The message will be addressed only to the member and will show it cames from your personal email address.  It would be wise to Add Group name in the Subject line so the member will not delete it thinking it's spam.

(The message will not be posted on the group site.)

Answer 8

just get their e-mail address and send it to that 1 person only.

Answer 9

you have to do this through your own e-mail provider- you cannot do this through the group site

Answer 10

To send a private email u have to use the "BCC" function

If your using Yahoo Classic Mail, compose your email, and if you look underneath the "From:" function, you will find "Insert adress" , "Add CC", and "Add BCC"

click the "Add BCC" and it will give you a slot for email addresses that won't be shown to others.

If your using the New Yahoo Mail, on the top left hand corner right next to "check mail", click "New Mail" and it will pop out a new screen. Just click the "Show BCC" near the right side of the screen and add ur secret addresses that you don't want others to see.

Answer 11

get their email address
