Talking about checking sent emails, we are able to say like this. After you send your loved one an email, the correctional facility is going to literally print it out and put it with that day’s mail. Usually, mail would be handed out early evening Monday-Friday. For instance, if you sent the email Wednesday night, they should receive it Thursday evening. While, if you sent the email Friday night, they would receive email the following Monday evening.

How does JPay’s Email work?

As we said before that JPay’s Email service provides a good way for family or friends to write electronic letters to their loved ones in prison. The inmates are going to accept their email within 24 to 48 hours. Also, there are many who can respond electronically. The inmates do not own access to the Internet. JPay’s email is different from your email program at your home. The inmates are going to receive their email according to a schedule set by their facility. Emails are subject to the same screening and delivery rules that apply to traditional mail.

What do you need to write an Email to an inmate?

For those who want to send or receive emails from an inmate through JPay, firstly you have to make a JPay.com account. Then, you must have the inmate’s ID and virtual JPay stamps. Of course, make sure you have a computer with Internet access. Some of you may not know what JPay Stamps are. Like regular postage stamps, every email that you send needs a JPay stamp. The longer the email, so the more stamps you will need to send email successfully. Aside from that, attachments, photos and VideoGrams also need additional stamps. However, JPay Stamps will not expire.

How much does it charge to send Email?

One virtual stamp will allow you type up to 6000 characters, which is the equivalent of about 6 pages of handwriting. Normally, the cost of JPay stamps varies according to the facility. There are some facilities that offer stamp subscriptions. The prices of stamps can be viewed by visiting JPay.com and clicking on the Prison Search button. To get a detailed history of your JPay stamp purchases, you are able to see a list of prior JPay stamp purchases by clicking the Purchase History button under the Email tab on JPay.com. Aside from that, you are also able to send a request to support@JPay.com

This is going to show your email as a PDF.

With some exceptions, the inmates will read and reply to your emails via the JPay inmate kiosks which are located inside their living units.
