Sending Messages to Other Users
You can exchange private messages with other users on a one-to-one basis. The messages are only visible to the sender and recipient.
This is beneficial when you want to contact a specific user privately. For example, you can use private messages to ask your supervisor or senior colleague for advice, or to have a casual talk with your co-worker.
