I get numerous e-mails about people trying to contact other members on the forum via e-mail and they don't have their e-mail address. What is funny about it is when someone posts in a thread "email me" to someone else and don't have their email address available to the public in their profile. Here's how you enable this feature:

Click on the USERCP option on the top of the forum and then click on the EDIT OPTIONS link on the left hand side. A few options down you will see:

"You can allow other members to send you email messages"

Make sure this box is checked and then it will allow other users to get your email address from your profile.

And while you are at it, its a good idea to allow PMs from other members. These are Private Messages, and a good way to communicate to other members. Be sure to check the box that sends you a note or a pop-up when you have a new message. I have sent many PMs to individuals who have never read them. This makes it kind of difficult to communicate off of the forums if you can't or don't read the messages.
