You can email another user by clicking their avatar and see if they allow email or I.M and email them through answers if it shows Email but if the link doesn't show they do not allow emails you can't email them.
>>>For you to send emails you have to allow others to send them to you.
To activate emails >
Go to http://answers.yahoo.com/
Click small fork / wrench icon on right of your avatar
Scroll down to Answers Community

Same as before. Click their avatar, click the email link on that profile page.

You have to have yours available as well, and it doesn't look like you do. So if you can't receive email, you can't email to someone else.
Once you've enabled your email, just click on where it has the little envelope and says "email" it the other person's profile

If you need to report someone, click on the flag and it will take you to a form you have to complete.

You can only email someone else if you provide your email as well. Then you can click on the picture that they have and click email (if they have their email up).
