Conversations versus private messages

[gunhilltrain]

They seem to have overlapping functions. The conversations can be written from the feature on the task bar above the forums. I assume PMs are what are written from the contact box within a person's profile. So the PM responses come back to - my profile? I did add my email address to the PM, so perhaps that is moot anyway. I seem to remember the conversation option being a new feature starting about six months ago. Thanks!

As far as I can tell, 'Conversations' in this new version of Literotica are the same as the PM's of the old version. The responses come back to the list in the Conversations window. That is how it is working for me.

Yes, Conversations have replaced the old PMs, but work in the same way - the envelope icon will flag new mail. The Conversations continue within the Lit system.

The Feedback mechanism, which sends a message to your private email address, is a separate system. Apparently, it can only be used once per Author, if it's used from an Account name - which implies an assumption by the site that people sending Feedback will provide their email address if they want to open up dialogue with an author.

Thank you; I think I understand it now.
