Cannot read properties on a member that is not logged in
Im trying to retrive information on a member to display its properties.

I do that by getting the member via email ie:
```
_member =  Member.GetMemberFromEmail(email);
var firstname = _member.getProperty("FirstName").Value.ToString()
```
But that fails. If the member is logged in I can get the property without any problems.

Is this by design?

You should really be using the ASP.NET membership providers if you're using Umbraco 4, see

If you have the opportunity to display memeber details is XSLT, here's a snippet for that:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp "&#x00A0;"> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet 
    version="1.0" 
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
    xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
    xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library"
    exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library">


  <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

  <xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
  <xsl:variable name="memberIdAlias" select="/macro/memberIdAlias"/>
  <xsl:variable name="memberId" select="$currentPage/data [@alias=$memberIdAlias]"/>

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:if test="$memberId!=''">
      <xsl:call-template name="memberDetails">
        <xsl:with-param name="member" select="umbraco.library:GetMember($memberId)"/>
      </xsl:call-template>
    </xsl:if>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template name="memberDetails">
    <xsl:param name="member"/>
    Author Name: <b><xsl:value-of select="$member/@nodeName"/></b><br/>
    Email: <b><xsl:value-of select="$member/@email"/></b>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Cheers,
Nik
