Good question and i'm not sure of the answer. The easiest is PM since it won't get lost in spam filters, etc. But, PM only works when the member is online with FlyerTalk. Email goes to the member whenever he/she is checking their normal email whether they are on FT or not. While i like PM the best, it's not as easy to use. It doesn't have cc:'s that stay with the P<. It is not personally searchable nor are you able to sort to find a particular members email, does not have "groups" send feature, etc. These are all things that regular email is good for. I hope that some day our software can overcome these limits but for right now, PM trumps email for me.
