Hi All

Yes Steven, that is right, a white envelope mean's it has been read and a purple envelope mean's it has not been read yet.

Those with free membership can still respond to messages. They just can't initiate contact.

Joan,

I'm in contact with several members who do not subscribe to the site. I think perhaps Rose's board name explains it. The other person must initiate a Reply to a message you have sent.
