I have received a private message from a user, but I do not know how to reply back to the user.

Is it as simple as going to the user and sending a private message? What about the information that was given in the orginal message? It would be nice to see that so I know what they were talking about in the original message.

Any help that can be provided is greatly appreciated. I love this community so far and I am anxious to learn more about how I can help.

Hi Les,

A private message is just an email, in which the receiver's email address is hidden to prevent spam. To reply to a private message, you can just reply to the email. Of course, your email address is no longer private once you respond.
