No, that isn't possible. You'll have to do this with forums and/or e-mail.

you can send a /tell to anybody, assuming you know their name in game and they are on.

In the future there might be some kind of "Postal Service" in-game, if that's any help. But don't expect this kind of feature soon ;)
Right now your best bet would be /tell'ing when the player is on-line or sending a PM to their forum account, considering you know their forum name.

A better feature might be a spellcheck for these here forums. I could barely read that.

A few things to the thread author... I hope I'm not being too harsh:

1 - It's not wise to use your email address as a username.

2 - Did you finish the tutorial? I think someone says something about /tells there. Unfortunately it's impossible to send something like /tells while people are offline.

3 - Is this person even registered on the forum? Some people who play PS don't visit the forum.

4 - How the hell are you going to send a literate message to this person??? What's the point if you can't spell?

Spellcheck!

...I was bored.

 :) Well I would think that last comment was pretty harsh and unnecessary. Maybe we could try to be a little more polite? Just a suggestion.

I've stated it before, but meh, "this forum does have a spell check feature.  It is disabled because it was using up to much server resources, and due to the fact the server that hosts the forums isn't donated and acraig does pay for a service fee, if we go over our allowed usage, they shut off the forum."

firefox has a built in spell check feature that works on the forums.  simply use that.  :)
