The description states:

Enables the use of both personal and site-wide contact forms. I set the site-wide form up and it works perfectly. However the ONLY other person ANY user can contact is HIMSELF! I've checked the "Personal contact form" box that states:

Allow other users to contact you by e-mail via your personal contact form. Note that while your e-mail address is not made public to other members of the community, privileged users such as site administrators are able to contact you even if you choose not to enable this feature.

your personal contact form is a link, and when I click it, it takes me to a form with the "From:"AND "To:" the SAME person....ME.

I've set up a couple of other users and it's the SAME with each.

I've tried following the article here: http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/contact

but the followups talk about 5.x and going to "Administer » Site building" and "Site Building>>Menus" which don't exist in 4.7.6.

ANY help would be appreciated.

I've spent MOST of the day trying everything I could find on this site and I'm ready to tear (what hair I have left) out.

Thanks.

If you goto a different user's profile you should now see a new tab called "contact" - you then click this and it will allow you to contact another user ...

The menu building stuff is in admin->menus on Drupal 4.7, I am guessing this is to allow you to add a link to the site-wide contact form?

the From: and To: fields are HARD CODED as the same person (the user I've logged in as). I have NO way of choosing who to send the message to. I can only send it to myself.

From: User One

To: User One

Subject: *

Message: *

Now, if I log in as admin and go to administer >> users, click on user1 and then the "contact tab", the form pops up as it should:

From: admin

To: User One

Subject: *

Message: *

But what do I do to get this to work for a normal user?

Got it!!!

Administer >> access control>> user module

"access user profiles" should be checked for authenticated users.
