ELECTRONIC MAIL
(E-MAIL)
Electronic mail is a means of sending and receiving messages – internally, nationally, or internationally.
Subscribers to e-mail need a terminal, such as personal computer, a telephone line, and a modem, which is a device for converting signals to text. Messages appear on the receiver's computer screen. E-mail users can also have access to a mailbox, which they can call from anywhere in the world and retrieve messages. They receive a mailbox number and a password for confidentially. Messages can be printed out and kept for reference.
In comparison with telex, e-mail is relatively low in cost, and does not require a trained operator. It is also fast, relatively reliable, and messages can be sent or picked up anywhere in the world, and stored in the mailbox until they are retrieved.
This can be particularly advantageous for users who are communicating across international time zones.
Exercise 8. Read and discuss the following e-mail.
Here is an example of one type of message, with the capitals representing data on the Visual Display Unit (VDU) and the italics, the messages.
Notice the codes which are the personal numbers of subscribers (e.g. ABC 536), and the prefixes (e.g. 40): which is the number of that computer system. Also the dot (.) before the word SEND (.SEND), which is a command to the computer.
