I can't find it. I attached a screenshot of version WSN Links 5.1.46 Admin Panel. I have 4 or 5 installs and none of them shows the email function ---> see screenshot.
I was looking into all of my installs and found most don't have the 'send email' link in admin, but 2 of them showed it. Lucky :-) I think I found a work-around solution if I enter /admin/email.php into the browser it shows the email function. Something else I noticed: the email function shows up in admin for scripts installed in root directory of domain, but not for installs in subfolders.
I see it hides the email page when you switch members off. Since it should still be possible to email submitters while you have no members, I'll un-hide that and hide the members-related half of the send emails page instead.
Emailing submitters or members even is something I was thinking of too.
My own site is still in development so this is all just being thought about at the moment.
I was thinking myself of installing a thirdy party newsletter script. One that not only permits a newsletter but one that has multi lists functionality and autoresponder features as well.
eg for the public who register the auto responder could be set up with a series of time spaced emails to highlight certain feautures such as ability to set up link lists etc.
A separate list might auto respond messages to those who have submitted links. These message might be something like..upgrade to a paid listing or it could even be some form of advertising message of my choice.
If for such a thing I use a script I host myself running of the same db as my wsn it should be reasonably feasible to tie up wsn user status to relevenet auto responder lists. A much harder task to do if using something external such as awebber.
Just my rough thinking / future vision of where I would ultimately like to go with some extra customisation work of my own.
Just chipping in ideas really in case they inspire someone here.

In your admin area scroll down to the Emails section in the left hand navigation. Under there you will seeSend E-Mails

hmm, very strange. Afraid you will have to wait for Paul to answer this one then.
Stupid question: You're not on a trial version or something?

Thanks for your help.
No demo, I run full paid versions.
