lord of the rings trial version help

I just started playing the lord of the rings online trail version, and I seem to be unable to IM other players in the game, or send a message to them even after I have added them to my friends list! I am wondering if it because I am using the trial version but that should not make a difference right? I have read the game manual but got little help their. Could it be because I asking another player who is not in the same character class?

    Trials cant send tells. The obvious reason is to avoid gold spam.

    Trial accounts can only send/recieve tells to people who have added you to THEIR friends list, fellowship members, and kinship members.

    They also cannot send/recieve mail, nor use the auction house, or trade.

    This is to help curb the goldseller spam.

    It's a pain in the butt, I agree, but this is unfortunately where we have come to in the ages of power-leveling / gold spamming.

    I played the trial last week and I was able to IM players on my friends list.  The only times I was prevented from IM friends was:

     

    if the other person did not add me as a friend and/or;

    when I was not on the original character that added the friend
