In order to use email, you must have email software installed on your PC. This software works together with your communications software to send and receive messages over the Internet.

You can obtain email software from your Internet service provider (ISP) or your online service. You can also purchase this software from your local computer store, or download it from the World Wide Web

Most Web browsers have built in email software. However, separate email software provides you with more features and functions.

Current Email software include Qualcomm's Euodora, Netscape Mail, and Microsoft Internet Mail. Netscape Mail is actually a module of Netscape Navigator.
