Enhancement: Multiple kindle emails addresses per calibre-web account

[thomasbra1]

Hi,

Would it be possible to add the feature of having multiple email addresses per calibre-web account as I have more than one Kindle in the household. It would be nice to send the same book to all kindles without having to switch to different calibre-web accounts. The kindle email field could be comma separated for the multiple email addresses. Thanks for all the work on this software.

I think this is a very rare usecase. I decided not to implement it, you could use several accounts to manage the different kindle devices. Sorry

Sorry to waste your time. I'll just find something better to use. A very poor response.

I dont think this is a rare usecase. A lot of us have More than one kindle.

As a workaround I set my email address for the kindle address. Than I made an email filter to forward all those emails to all of my kindle addresses. This way I get the book on all kindles and I delete it on the devices where I dont need it.

A lot of us have More than one kindle.It would be nice to send the book to selected kindles without having to switch to different calibre-web accounts.

This is not a rare use-case. My grandparents and mother and father all have kindles, all want the same books, and my mother/gran are never going to log into CW, and a pain for my father to have to log into 4 accounts. All we need is a semi-colon list adding.

Add my vote to the "this is not rare use-case" crowd I'd love to see this implemented

[ericvoshall]

I would also like to see this.

4 kindles at home (my wife, children and me) and 2 at my parents home, it would be nice to be able to choose with kindle send to from one account, actually I need to login/logout account by account. For me is a good enhancement so please take in consideration

[blumarten]

adding my voice to this. i wanted to set up calibre-web so various members of my family in different locations with different devices can view my library and send a book to their respective kindles

[davidalben]

I prefer to read MOBI books in my Kindle and PDF magazines in my tablet using Kindle app. It should be great to select which device I want to send a book to without logging out/in.

Adding my vote.

Another vote. I need to sometimes send books to my kindle, sometimes to my wife's, and sometimes to the kids'. A lot easier if there could be an option to choose which email address to send it to, instead of having to login as each individual user before sending the book.

[RobbieG3]

Please reopen this request. I'm also adding a vote to support multiple Kindle email addresses in one account.

I have a scribe and a paperwhite, I prefer academic like pdfs on my scribe and regular books on my paperwhite. This feature would be fantastic.

+1, well really +4 since I often send the same book to four places. I would think in 2023 it's rare to not have more than one device that someone reads from (tablet, multiple kindles, phone, etc.). A distribution list would be another way to accomplish this.
