2. Clicking the link opens the New message dialog where new messages can be created and sent out. When creating a message, you first need to select its recipient.

3. Then you need to fill in the Subject field and the actual text of the message into the large text area. Entered text can be formatted using BBCode. This is possible either by entering BBCode tags directly, or using the icons above the main text area. Supported BBCode tags are listed and explained in Modules -> Forums -> BBCode support.
