Q)
What
is an E-mail account?
Ans) The desire to communicate
is the essence of networking. People
have always wanted to correspond with
each other in the fastest way possible.
Electronic mail (or email) is the
most prevalent application of this
in computer networking. It allows
people to write back and forth without
having to spend much time worrying
about how the message actually gets
delivered. Some people have more than
one e-mail account, with each account
having its own e-mail address. For
example, a person might have one e-mail
account on their company's network,
and another account with his ISP for
his personal e-mail needs.
