Hi,

I'm trying to figure out a way to notify someone that another person has replied to a post they made in a discussion.  I'm pretty sure I know how to figure out who the email should be sent to, but for now I'm just trying to get it to work by just sending it to my personal email.  This is the code I'm trying to get to work:

Thanks,

Mike

    Is there a specific problem?  What happens when you run that code?
