What is Electronic Mail?
Electronic mail works on
the client/server principle. A client program enables the user to interact with a server
in order to access information and services on the server computer.
To read and send mail,
users need to access the computer where their mail resides (the server).
The client application is
the interface which lets a user read, reply to, forward, compose and send new messages.
Some examples of e-mail
client programs are Qualcomm Eudora, pine, elm and Lotus cc:Mail.
