How to Find Email Address-Everything You Need to Know By Christopher Granger At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

It is so easy to lose someone’s email. You could have forgotten to add their email address to your list of contacts, and then deleted their emails. You could have written it down on a piece of paper then accidentally threw it away. Or you could have memorized it, used it to send an email and then forgot about it. The process how you lost the address is not important. What is important is that you need their email address urgently. If you’ve ever been in this predicament, or if you’re in it now, here are some tips on how to find email address.

Before undertaking an online search, why not try looking through your papers first? That piece of paper you wrote the email address on could have been misplaced in a file. Those correspondences may still be in your deleted mail box. You could have used that business card as a book mark. Or this person’s email address may be on a press release you’ve pinned on a corkboard. If a search of your desk and personal possessions proves futile, you can try guessing the email address.

If you know where the person whose email you’re looking for works, you can try adding his or her name to the domain name of the company (i.e. anonymous @company.com). If that does not work and you know the email address of another person working at this company, you can try looking for a pattern to the email address (i.e., instead of anonymous man, it could be aman@company.com or anonymous_man@company.com) You can also try linking variations of their names with prominent email providers, for instance anonymousman@mymail.com or anonymous.man@freeemail.net.

If all your guesses fail, then you have to find help. You can try asking your co-workers if they know the email address. You can also try getting in touch with them through the company’s email, which is commonly found in the company homepage. If you know this person’s interests, you can also try searching Usenet, discussion groups and mailing lists. You might get lucky and find a post which would provide you with an email address. Or you can simply leave a post and hope they read it and get in touch with you.

You can also try going online and searching on public email directories and people search engines. You can also try search engines that troll social networking sites. These networking search engines would not provide an email address but will provide you with a way to get in touch with them. And to make your life easier, there are also sites that consolidate these search engines on one page, which will make your search immeasurably easier. There are also reverse email search sites, where you just type in the full name of the person, and if it’s part of their database, the system will provide you with their email address.

If all else fails in your quest on how to find email address, you can try typing the person’s name on a search engine. They may have their own website or blog. Or one of your hits may bring up a page where the person has left his or her email address.

With the judicious use of any or a combination of these methods, you should eventually find the email address you need.
