pdurrant · 07-22-2016, 09:04 AM

In another thread, the recommendation for gaining easy access to non-Amazon ebooks from a Kindle was to email the ebooks to ones Amazon account, where they'd become available to all Kindles on that account.

I have a few questions

Is there an account-level email address to send to, or does any address associated with any Kindle do?
What format is best to send? MOBI, AZW3, Combined or ePub? Or something else?
How much storage is available for ebooks sent in this way?
Is it possible to update or delete/resend documents sent in this way?
Do the books appear in the same list as books purchased from Amazon on a Kindle? Or is there a separate list?

Thanks!
