<p>The bitcoin protocol does not support sending Bitcoins to an email address, so I am assuming that Coinbase offers a Paypal-like service that allows sending Bitcoin to family and friends' accounts with their email address.

Can yo explain what you mean by "sent it to my email adress"? You can't send Bitcoins to an email adress. That's against the bitcoin protocol.
