Sending and Receiving Email
Sending and receiving email should not be difficult. You will need:
- To be connected to the Internet. For instance you may connect by dial up, ADSL or a leased line.
- An email client, e.g. Outlook express. This program picks up and organises your email.
- A POP3 box where your email collects (Incoming mail).
- An SMTP server (Outgoing mail). This will be supplied by your ISP.
Configuration of your mail client (e.g. Outlook Express) varies depending on the client.
