How to access GardenWeb mail???

15 years ago

I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post this...I'm still trying to find my way around! When GW members send me email through this site, how do I access it? Once, I had a banner near the top of the page that said, "You have mail", but now I can't figure out how to find it again?

Acccccccck, I feel like such a NOOB!

Thanks,

Susan in Kansas

Hi Susan!
Dont feel bad about not being to find your email on the Gardenweb site... cause we dont have an email feature on the actual site. When you send an email on the site it is forwarded to the persons personal email account. Like yahoo... hotmail... etc. :) So if you are looking for a email from someone it should be at your personal email account. When you sign up or edit your member page you put an email address in there... that is the email account all emails that people write you will go. I am sending you an email now to your personal email account through gardenweb. Be sure to check your spam folder some email accounts send it there. I hope this helps!

Sincerely,
Vanessa

1. No, not after submitted, but you can preview and double check it before you submit it. But if you really need to add something to your original post right after it is submitted just Post a Follow up. Change the wording in the Subject box so it doesn't get rejected as a duplicate post. 2. No, only the OP can choose to get reply email. 3. Yes, just click on "My Page" link after your name in any post or on "Member Pages" link at the bottom of any page to go to your personal page and once there click on See My Clippings. Dave

Due to confursion with the two new members I am sending out six to emily... Time and the gardener (too many words not enough photos lol) Great Garden Decor - please return did not have labels so I wrote name and address on front page. Book has some neat ideas... I want to try one on page 74 with circle and stones on circle as well as brick patterns on page 73 Lawn & garden book. All about azaleas, camellias and rhododendrons The treehouse book, alhtough this book is not really garden. it is inspiring to look at photos and made me feel like a kid again for 10 minutes which made the book worthwhile just because of that! The little guide of herbs. Sorry for the delay emily! I just got 4 trees cut down in my yard what a mess.... Still have carcuses of 2 left in my yard we are trying to cut up.

Up till this past April when I changed ISP and got a new e-mail address I had some really nice e-mail conversations. But since last April I've been trying to get GW to change my e-mail address and it just isn't working. I've been to my personal page,I've sent e-mail to the "powers to be" and still I can't get the e-mail changed. gypsypat@finestplanet.com SOooooothis fall I'll see about getting a new ISP and see if that will take, then maybe I can resume some much missed friendships.

Hi irisheyes66,

Welcome to Garden Web, and The Seed Exchange.

You might also want to check out the Conversation side of the Seed Exchange. There is a lot of 'good to know' info found there as well as friendly chatter. The link to Conversations is found just above the list of all the threads here on the Discussion side.

btw...we were all newbies finding our way around here at one time.
