How to use E-mail

E-mail is without a doubt the most popular Internet service.  What does it all mean?  First of all, the "e" stands for Electronic, thus it is said to be Electronic Mail or "E-mail" for short.

Every e-mail address has four different parts.  First, there is the person's name or nickname.  For example, WOW's e-mail address is info@wowusa.com The "info" part of the address is our nickname.  The second part of an e-mail address is the famous @ sign.  Anyone and everyone who has an e-mail address will have this famous sign.  The @ stands for "at"!  The third part of an e-mail address is the actually place the e-mail is being sent.  For example, WOW received their e-mail @ wowusa.  Lastly, all e-mail addresses end with a combination of letters such as, .com, .net, .edu.

QUICK EXAMPLE:

Nickname:  info
Famous at sign:  @
Delivery location:  wowusa
Ending:  .com
