    I'm trying/er--want to send message to someone that doesn't have an internet...... the only thing they have is is a po box and a address, and a plain Jane phone line.

    And ideas??

    Hi

    I'm sorry, but what are you asking? Are you asking how to get a computer message (email) to someone with no internet? The answer would be, unless they have an email address they can access either through a public computer terminal or a friend, there isn't a way.

    I'm not trying to be smart, but why not just call them or send it through traditional mail?

    If they have a nearby friend , with an email account, why not send it via them.
    That is if the email is not too personal.:)

    Email nearby friend...public computer (library, etc.), all good, and I was thinking the same here ... and yes, there is an ancient method, whereby one would obtain a device...known as; "an envelope"...and, though it costs a whopping .40-some cents (U.S.) these days, one could actually enter an address on the front of the envelope, and...... :-D

    Apologies if this is an old fashioned idea, but as a last resort, why not post them a letter.
