I don't know how to do that, and didn't notice you had
asked earlier.  We haven't emailed books before, but I
agree it might be desirable.  I can think of some details
that matter (i.e., preventing emailing books to strangers;
books that are too big for email).

The readingroo.ms site is, as always, available for
anyone wanting to do experimentation.

Slightly related, there was a fellow who was interested in
a PG app.  It would do that sort of thing... but I don't
expect to see a PG app anytime soon.  We did a pair of apps
where I work (one for idevices, one for android), and they
take constant care & feeding to maintain.
