How to PM an SDMB user?

I see the OP on “how to PM message a MOD,”: but this seems different.

Postscript: is it possible to PM a user without using the app?

Thanks!

Either click their avatar and use the Message button in the “profile card” or go to your profile, click “messages” and use the “New Message” button.
