Electronic mail, or E-mail, is your personal connection to Internet.
- All of the millions of people on the Internet have their own e-mail
addresses.
- You should know your E-mail address by now. It will be something like:
A.N.Other@cs.cf.ac.uk
or
santa@northpole.org
E-mail is like regular mail.
- You send mail to people at their particular addresses.
- People write to you at your E-mail address.
- You can subscribe to the electronic equivalent of magazines and newspapers.
- You might even get electronic junk mail.
