Send a message to a contact

This is how you send a message to one of your XING contacts:

Via the member's profile page:

1. Go to the profile page of the person you want to send a message to.
2. Click Write Message in the upper right corner of the member's profile page.

Via the messages area:

1. Click on Messages in the navigation.
2. Click the pencil icon (New) on top of your screen and select the contact you want to write to. Use the search box to find a specific contact.
3. Now write your message in the field in the bottom right corner of the screen and click on Send.

Via the contact list:

1. Click Network in the navigation and find the contact you'd like to write a message to in your contact list.
2. Click on the Send message icon next to the name of the contact.

Please note: Basic members are not able to send messages to non-contacts and need to send a contact request first. After the user accepted your contact request, you will be able to send him/her a message.
