Default Roll your mouse over the 'Posted By' on anyone's msg...

...& you will see their email address on the bottom of your browser. Right click it, & you can copy it. (Including Mihnea & Yumy's! Doing this on Yumy's yields:
mailto:yumyjagermiesterathvcdotrrdotcom
WITH the @ and . --- NOT as in Yumy's advice.)
Sorry Yumy - yours has been out there all along 'en clear' for all of the spammers to harvest.) Click it, and it will open your email cllient in a new msg window with the address line filled in!

And now, time for me to get on my soap box.

DO NOT USE OUTLOOK OR OUTLOOK EXPRESS. SMITE IT FROM YOUR SYSTEM WITH ALL POSSIBLE HASTE AND CONVICTION. IT IS FAR BETTER TO NOT USE OUTLOOK AND NO ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE THAN OUTLOOK WITH ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE.

Pegasus is a nice option, as it is at my favorite price --- free. (www.pmail.com) It does email really well - with multiple users to boot! It also does, well, email! And ONLY email. (Just like an email client should!)AND IT WON'T LET THE WORMS NEAR YOUR SYSTEM UNLESS YOU ARE REALLY (REALLY REALLY) DUMB & TRIP 'EM YOURSELF!

(Someone out there I have emailed on this site HAS A WORM! as I am getting emails with the worm from others they have infected -- obvious Audi sources I have never had contact with. I don't give a rats patoottie as I don't use outlook.)
