Tip #15: Accessing Yahoo Mail and Gmail Email from Kindle

Using the Kindle web service is a little like swimming through molasses, unless you keep to simple searches and mobile friendly websites. But it can be done at a pinch and if you don't mind the long wait for pages to open. I wouldn't use it for composing massive emails, but certainly if you want to check your Yahoo email while you're out & about with your kindle, you can!

First, turn on your wireless connection (Menu > Turn Wireless On) and go to the web (Menu > Experimental > Web).

Once at the web, click Menu > Enter URL
Yahoo http://m.yahoo.com/mail

Hotmail: http://mobile.live.com/hm
Gmail: http://m.gmail.com/

Other options:
Yahoo Messenger http://us.m.yahoo.com/p/messenger

Once signed in, you can bookmark this on your Kindle for future access. (Menu > Bookmark This Page).
To access this page at a future date, click Menu > Bookmarks and scroll through the pages
