How to Find an Old Friend's Email Address

Use a search engine to find an email address of an old friend.

Losing touch with an old friend is something many people try not to do, but it happens. Search engines, such as Google, are a tool that you can use to find the email address for someone. This method isn't always valid. The person will have to have an online presence in order for a search engine to find their email address. He can be listed on their company's website, have her own website or blog, communicate in message boards or be an active participant in social networking.

Instructions

1. Open up your Internet browser and go to a search engine. Use Google, Yahoo! or any of the other search engines out there.

2. Type in the person's name that you are looking for plus "contact" in the search box. For instance, type in "John Doe contact" to find contact information for John Doe. To narrow down the search some, enter in the city and state information that the person lives in. Click the "Search" button and wait for the results. If nothing comes up, keep on to the next step.

3. Type in the name of the person you are looking for with "email address" or "EmailProvider" behind it. To search for John Doe, type in "John Doe email address" or "John Doe EmailProvider." Click the "Search" button.
