It's not about whether it's a phone number or not. It's about whether the recipient is an iMessage user. iMessage users can and do register their phone numbers as iMessage recipient numbers, and they can also register email addresses. >> 2.

No. The video is sent full size by the iPhone and the compression happens on the receiving cellular network. -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter.
