Following is process defined for sending an e-mail:
Definition:
E-mail (Electronic mail) is/are message/messages distributed by electronic means from one computer user to one or more recipients via a network.
Working:
First of all you will need an email address of your own. Next, you need to know the email address of anyone who you wish to contact. Having entered your email program, you need to select the “New Message” or “Compose” option in your email software. You will then be presented with a blank email (rather like a blank piece of paper for you to fill in). In the box labelled “To”, type in the email address of the person or company or organization, you want to contact. In the box labelled “Subject”, you can type in a short description of your email. For example: Customer Complaint (when writing to a company with a complaint regarding their service).
The short subject line enables them to prioritize emails and sort them.
Now you can move into the main area of your email and type your message. It’s still considered polite to sign your emails. All you have to do is type your name at the end of your message in whatever form you feel is appropriate. You are now ready to send your email message. You need to select the “Send” or “Send Message” option in your email program. Your email will be sent immediately.
Depending on your email program, it may also automatically save a copy of your email message in a separate section (sometimes called the Sent Folder/draft) so that you have a copy to refer back to, should you need it.
