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.
