Can you or anyone else tell me how to access this "private message" facility?
FMF broke protocol and needs to apologize. Period.

FMF owes Suzianne an apology. He shared her private, personal message with others. It was wrong, and all excuses FMF has used has only made him look weak and cowardly.
You calling me "cowardly" is neither here nor there and you can do so till you go blue in the face if you want to. It's like robbie-style debating and it's of no consequence. But if you have an actual argument about "confidentiality" in a case like this, then I'd be happy to listen to it and perhaps even change my mind.
This whole private message thing has got right out of hand.
There is no official ban on the sharing of private messages. The ban is on the sharing of private information which the writer should not wish made public, such as family details, real-world name and address and medical information. There is no ban on the re-broadcasting of offensive or abusive messages, and FMF would have been within his rights to publish that email in the public forums. That he chose not to do so should be noted. Those of you who are carrying on at such length about this need to get a life.

If Suzianne sent you an abusive post, which makes you a pussy admitting it, then you report it to RHP, like a coward would. The fact that an online woman threatened you is absurd, and you took that opportunity to share a private message.
Stop this. End this. Apologize to Suzianne, admit your feminine reaction, and all could be well.
