eMail
eMail (electronic mail) is
very similar to the mail the
postal carrier delivers to
your home or office—
except much faster.
You can send letters,
pictures, postcards—even
music and video clips—to
friends, family, and
co-workers in an instant.
Outlook Express is an eMail
program that comes with
your computer. Other eMail
programs include AOL and
Hotmail.
If you receive an error message
saying that your
eMail was undeliverable, check
the address, punctuation, and
spacing and then try sending it
again.
