Each Kindle has its own unique e-mail address. When you e-mail personal documents 

to your Kindle, they are automatically converted to a Kindle-friendly format. 

To set up your Kindle e-mail address, follow the steps below:

1.

On your computer, open your web browser and go to  

http://www.amazon.com/manageyourkindle 

2.

Sign-in to your Amazon account. 

3.

In the Your Kindle(s) section, select "Edit Info." 

4.

In the Kindle E-mail Address text field, change the first part of the e-mail address 

to what you would like it to be. The @kindle.com will automatically be appended. 

5.

Select "Update information" to save your changes and close the text entry box. 

Your Kindle will only receive converted files from e-mail addresses you have authorized 

on the Manage Your Kindle page to help prevent spam. The default setting dictates that 

only items sent from your Amazon account e-mail address will be forwarded. You can 

add e-mail addresses to the list by visiting http://www.amazon.com/manageyourkindle.

In Manage Your Kindle, add the addresses of your friends, co-workers, or anyone else 

you would like to enable to send you files:

1.

In the Your Kindle Approved E-mail List section on the Manage Your Kindle page, 

enter the e-mail address in the blank box. 

2.

Select "Add Address." 

Once you have set up the e-mail addresses, you can send and convert your personal 

documents by following the steps below:

1.

Attach your document to a new e-mail or forward an existing e-mail that has a 

document attached. A subject is not required. 

2.

Address the e-mail to your Kindle e-mail address for wireless delivery directly to 

your Kindle; a small fee will be charged for wireless delivery.
