These are set up for your use instead of using your own email..just click on the persons name you wish to leave a message with and then post a message...also make sure you check your own mailbox to see if someone has left you a message..if you aren't sure what to do let me know..and if your mailbox gets too much in it you can delete some messages and if it gets really full just ask me to start you a new one..I hope you use them..if not let me know and I'll delete yours..huggz..Angel
