Chapter 5: Using the Internet

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 the America Online
ISP might have an e-mail address that is similar to this one:
