Step 1

The first thing that you will need to do before you can find email addresses on MySpace, is to go to "http://www.myspace.com/" and set up an account. If you already have an account with MySpace, then log in with your email and password. If you don't have a MySpace account, click on the "Sign Up" option on the top, right-hand corner. Simply follow all the steps by entering in the information asked for and then click on the "Sign Up" button at the bottom of the page. You now have your own MySpace account that you can specialize with a plethora of features, and you are also now ready to be able to search for email addresses.

If Step 2 doesn't find you the person or people that you were looking for, then this alternative option might be even more helpful. Scroll over the "Friends" option on the top tool bar. Scroll down and click on the "Browse People" option. On this page you can set browsing criteria, which is most helpful as you are given the option of looking through results of people in your area. The advanced options in the "Set Browse Criteria" section may be even more helpful for you to narrow down your search. After you have the friend or friends you were looking for, you will need to add them as a friend. It is doubtful that their email will be made public without being a friend.

Go to the "Friends" option on the top tool bar, and scroll down to click on the "Invite Friends" option.

You can use the drop-down menu beside the search function to specify the search with either "People" or "MySpace."
