Problem with PM's (conversations)

Thread starter jim mcnamara
Start date Aug 2, 2017

In summary, a PM (conversation) is a private message exchange between individuals on a messaging platform. To access PMs, you can usually find a designated section or icon on the platform. Most platforms allow you to delete PMs, although there may be a time limit. PMs are typically intended to be private, but it is best to assume that they could potentially be seen by others. The number of people you can include in a PM may vary depending on the platform.

It seems some folks, but not every member on PF, can PM me. I am sure I must have done something dumb. Where do I start looking to allow PM's?
