How to contact a kit owner ?

In the U5b FMS mtDNA Project Test Results page:

I found a maternal ancestor I recognize as a family relative.
Is there any way I can contact the kit owner when all I know is the FTDNA kit number ?

Suggestion 1] Look on your MtDNA Matches for someone with that same listing on their Profile under "Maternal" under "Most Distant Ancestors" [that is where that entry on the Project comes from] - if you find it then the Profile will probably also provide an e-mail address.

Suggestion 2] Send an e-mail to the Project Manager, explaining the situation - ie giving the ancestor name, the ancestor's relationship to you -- and give the Kit number and requesting the Project Manager to forward the message to the Kit Owner.
(If you are a Member of the Project, then probably only fair to also give your Kit Number, so the other person will feel you two are on equal footing - possibly also explicitly requesting of Kit Owner to contact you ).

Did you take the full mtDNA test?

If yes, would you be a perfect match in HVR1 and HVR2 ?
