Sorry to piggyback but this thread fits well enough and no point in making a new thread for this.
Is there anyway to send a banned user a message like a PM or something that would actually reach them through email by using the site? I know you sometimes get emails about site activity but then you have to go on the site to see whatever it is, so if they're banned they wouldn't be able to go on and see it. So is there some method for that by any chance?
