Rootsweb has eliminated the requirement to register in the new system before posting a message or replying to one, and they have also restored the email addresses on all messages transferred from the old GenConnect boards. Just click on "Post New Message" or "Post Reply." Also, for those who are registered in the new system, the option has been added to have a different name and email address used on your messages than those you used for registration.
