Using e-mail
E-mail
(electronic mail) lets you send messages to anyone who has an Internet
connection and e-mail address. E-mail is usually a free service of your Internet account.
The Internet never closes, so you can send e-mail messages at any time. Your e-mail
messages arrive at most e-mail addresses in minutes.
An
e-mail address consists of a user name, the @ symbol, and the Internet domain
name
of the Internet service provider (ISP) or company that “hosts” that user. Your
e-mail address is assigned when you sign up for an account with an ISP. For example,
a person with an account with Hotmail might have an e-mail address that is similar
to this one:
