Is it still possible to email users on Yahoo Answers?

We used to be able to click an email option on the user profile if the user allowed emails, but I don t see this option anywhere, even on my own profile. I made the email option active on my privacy preferences, but it does not appear when I look at my profile as an anonymous user.

Does the email option exist anymore? If so, how do you access it?

Update:

Maybe if someone reading this will just check my profile and see if the email option appears. Leave a reply if you see it or not. Thanks.

Update 2:

Nevermind, Whizzz took care of it. She gets best answer.

    Yes it is still possible...........you click the Avatar of the person you want to email or IM and if you see an envelope icon and Email click that and a message page comes up type your message and send.

    If you do not see Email or IM that means they are not allowing them so you can't

    To see any emails you receive from Answers members they show in your email inbox and say...Hello Your Name You have received a message from another user!
