  1. ALL ABOUT E-MAILS

  2. WHAT IS IT? • Email or e-mail is short for electronic mail. • It’s a modern method of: transmitting data, text files, digital photos, and audio and video files from one computer to another over the internet.

  3. SOME HISTORY... • During the 1960s and 1970s many companies in the United States used email facilities on their systems. • This enabled users of terminals attached to those systems to send messages to each other. • That was even before the internet was invented!

  4. As companies began to connect their central systems (hosts) to their head offices then employees were able to send email to other employees on a world-wide basis. • The internet just helped email become popular! That was in the beginning of the 1990s – when you were not even born!

  5. SENDING MESS GES • Email users create and send messages from individual computers using commercial programs: • To send the message, the user has to specify the addresses. Messages to more than one recipient are called broadcasting.

  6. The email address needs to be followed by the symbol @ (means “at”), followed by the domain, the organization's name, and finally the country. yourname@yahoo.com.br USER COUNTRY ORGANISATION

  7. Emails also contain headers and footers above and below the message. They usually state the senders name, email address, and the date that it was sent. A user then can store, delete, reply, or forward the message to others.

  8. You can use an Address Book and create a Contacts List.

  9. Most email programs allow you to attach files and photos to emails to send to others. This includes audio and video files and digital photographs.
