E-mail (Electronic mail)

E-mail is the most widely used features on the internet. We can exchange any message with any peoplr around the world by using e-mail. Even with multimedia of the web, e-mail is the most frequently used application of the internet. Many people who have access to the internet at school, home & work, use the internet for no other purpose than to send & receive e-mail. It's all not very difficult. We can create message log on to the internet & send. At first the message goes to the internet service provider's mail server, which in turns sends it to the recipient's mail server. On the way our message may go through several servers, each reading the domain name in order to route it to the appropriate server. The message then remains in the recipient's mail server until he requests it by "checking his mail". E-mail address is the location of individual's mail box on the internet. An e-mail addresses are different from 'snail mail' addresses. They usually consist of three parts :- a username, an 'at' symbol (@) , and a domain name. For example :- nepalithito@gmail.com
