Contacting

You may contact members by sending an e-mail or greeting, or by replying to a message you've received. Communicating (by e-mail or greeting) is 100% free.

e-mail: Send a personally written e-mail.
greet: Send a free pre-written "greeting card". These are intended to be ice-breakers to get a conversation going, however beware -- some members ignore, or even block, greetings and prefer e-mails only. So use greetings with caution. E-mails work best.
Certain greetings (currently Primary Photo and Credential requests) are treated specially. Whereas e-mails and greetings which are normally sent to the recipient's Mailbox, and saved in the Sender's Sent folder, these requests are posted to the recipient's Home page, permanently, serving as a continued reminder, until the request is fullfilled.

Messages in your VeggieConnection.com Mailbox are retained for the life of your account. Deleted messages are retained for 30 days. Messages moved to your Purged folder will be removed immediately.

How do I know when I receive a new message?

When a member sends a greeting or e-mail :

The message will be copied into the sender's VeggieConnection.com Mailbox Sent box and recipient's VeggieConnection.com Mailbox Inbox, and
A "You Have New Mail" notice will be sent to the recipient's VeggieConnection.com registered internet e-mail address (along with the sender's profile photo, if one).
We remind members (at their internet e-mail address) every 7 days over 30 days (4 times) if any Inbox messages remain unread.
