How can I use forum email?
It sounds to me like I can send private messages to other users who have it enabled, but I have not heard how to use it. I know it exists because when I click on my profile it asks if I want to enable forum email, does anyone else know how to use it?

Not sure what "Forum Email" is, but there isn't a private message system on Scratch. *EDIT: Found the topic*

Yes, it is possible to add this feature but I am (almost) sure we are not going to add private communication because a lot of our members are minors.
That would open yet another concern for parents and educators that are worried about what kids see and do on the Scratch website.
We already have a lot of work trying to monitor public communication (comments, tags, projects) !
In addition, I cannot think of many reasons of what private messaging would offer that current public messaging doesn't offer other the "annoyance" of seeing many comments or posts of people engaging in one-to-one communication.
