E-mail addresses versus Web addresses:
When you send someone an e-mail, you send it to them at their e-mail
address; for example MickeyLou@webtv.net.
Web sites have similar addresses known as URLs (Uniform Resource Locators);
for example www.msnbc.com.
While e-mail addresses and Web addresses may look alike, they work very
differently. You cannot send e-mail to someone at a Web address, and you
cannot view a Web site by going to an e-mail address.
