This question has nothing to do with the Gabbi's thread.
How does babblemail work?

From one the FAQs:
"This site lets members send messages ("babblemail") directly to each other using just posting names. The messages are sent as email, but by the server, so the sender doesn't need to know the recipient's (and the recipient doesn't find out the sender's) email address. To give it a try, go to the babblemail form. If you want, test it out by sending a message to yourself. Babblemail is turned off by default. To turn it on, update your registration and check the "accept babblemail" box.
If someone abuses this feature, they'll be blocked from using it (and from posting). Likewise, if someone's blocked from posting, they'll be blocked from using babblemail. My plan isn't to monitor babblemail directly, but to ask recipients to contact me if they feel it's been abused. I guess if it comes to that, the usual civility guidelines will apply. To be able to verify that specific babblemails were sent, my idea is to keep a log of who babblemails whom, when, and "fingerprints", but not actual copies, of messages."

Thanks PC - I checked the FAQs once to figure this out, but must have passed by what you set out.
