FWIW the "mobile reader how-to" looks to be about a "decade out of date."

On a book information page, there are options for DropBox, Google Drive, and OneDrive - but no option to e-mail it? If I could choose to e-mail it (even if it only allowed the email I signed in with), I could forward (or send) it to the e-mail address of my Kindle.
Hi, Tim. Project Gutenberg isn't in the business of running email servers for website users. We would need to set up outbound email processes (i.e., mail transfer agents) and related infrastructure. We would also then be transiting those email addresses through our servers, and therefore would need to add extra policy & procedure for privacy. Instead, all the files are simple to download, and then you can email them yourself. The "mobile reader" how-to on the front page of https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gutenbe... has our other guidance for the various mobile readers and handheld devices. I hope this explanation is useful. We do know how to send email, but this particular use case is not in our chosen scope of operations. Best, Greg Dr. Gregory B.
