3. You may know that e-mail (electronic mail) is a
way to send and receive messages accros the
internet, but do you know how individual
emails are sent or what they cost or how email
compares to traditional “snail” mail? To get a
better idea of what email is all about, review
the next slide.

4. Snail mail or smail (from snail + mail) is a dysphemistic
retronym—named after the snail with its slow speed—used
to refer to letters and missives carried by conventional
postal delivery services. The phrase refers to the lag-time
between dispatch of a letter and its receipt, versus the
virtually instantaneous dispatch and delivery of its
electronic equivalent, e-mail.
It is also known, more neutrally, as paper mail, postal mail,
land mail, or simply mail or post. An earlier term of the
same type is surface mail, coined retrospectively after the
development of airmail. This happened not too long ago,
between the 1970s to 1990s.
Snail mail is also a term used in reference to penpalling.
Snail mail penpals are those penpals that communicate with
one another through the postal system, rather than on the
internet which has become the more common medium.

5. Electronic mail, most commonly referred to as email or e-mail
since approximately 1993, is a method of exchanging digital
messages from an author to one or more recipients. Modern email
operates across the Internet or other computer networks. Some
early email systems required that the author and the recipient
both be online at the same time, in common with instant
messaging. Today's email systems are based on a store-andforward model. Email servers accept, forward, deliver and store
messages. Neither the users nor their computers are required to be
online simultaneously; they need connect only briefly, typically to
an email server, for as long as it takes to send or receive messages.
Historically, the term electronic mail was used generically for any
electronic document transmission. For example, several writers in
the early 1970s used the term to describe fax document
transmission. As a result, it is difficult to find the first citation for
the use of the term with the more specific meaning it has today

7. To receive email accout and email address.
Also, if you want to send emails to other
people, you will need to obtain their email
addresses. It’s important to learn how to write
email addresses correctly, because if you do not
enter them exactly right, your emails will not
be delivered or they might be delivered to the
wrong person.

8. 

Email addresses are always written in a
standard format that includes a username, the
@ (at) symbol and the email provider’s domain.
The username is the name you choose to
identify yourself and the email provider is the
website that host your email account.
Example: sundul_gan@yahoo.com

11. In the past, people usually received an email
account from the same companies that
provided their internet access. For example, if
AOL provided your internet connection, you’d
have an AOL email address. While this is still
true for some people, today it’s increasingly
common to use a free web-based email
service, also known as webmail. Anyone can
use these services no matter who provides their
internet access.

13. Today, the top three webmail providers are
Yahoo!, Microsoft’s Hotmail, and Google
Gmail. These Providers are popular because
they allow you to access your email account
from anywhere with an internet connection.
You can also access webmail on your mobile
devices.

organization, your provider’s domain might
end with a suffix like:
.gov
(Government websites),
.edu
(Education, for school),
.mil
(Military),
.org
(Organizations)

18. In adition to email access, webmail providers
also offer various tools and feature. These
features are part of a productivity suite, a set of
