Hello iclicku,

If Member A(paid member) send Member B(free member) an email, then Member B(free member) should be able to Reply to that email But can't send an email. Member B(free member) should be able to send replies or else your website will NOT be active and free member won't be entice to become paid members. Research paid sites such as Match.com and Lavalife.com, they all have unlimited replies to Free Members.

Hope this helps!

Hello David,

For free members to reply to messages is very important from a business perspective.... Now if there is an issue with Free Members sending email address in emails then it's best to suggest a new feature that will prevent all members from sending email addresses via Emails and Chat room etc.  So a good additional suggestion would be to have a feature that will prevent all members from sending email addresses via Emails and Chat Room etc.

we've tried to stop the sending of email addresses in text but it's nearly impossible with all the combinations that an address can be disguised as. such as : at aol, a/t a/o/l, at ay oh el, a-t hotmale, etc...i understand what you guys mean in terms of allowing free members the right to respond to email, but i'm telling you that there are just to many unscrupulous people looking to bypass your systems to take advantage of your good nature. i know that we all want to attract as many members to our databases as possible, but you need to protect the investment of your paying customers from seeing the holes in your design by weeding out the game players and bad eggs that can give your site a bad rap.
