Electronic Mail

Electronic mail, or email, is a method of sending digital messages and files over the internet between computers or devices. It functions like traditional mail but is instant and can include text, images, documents, or links. Users create a message with an email app or service, specify a recipient’s email address, and click send. The message travels through servers and networks, reaching the recipient's inbox quickly. Email simplifies communication, allowing for fast, efficient, and asynchronous exchanges across the globe, and is widely used for personal, professional, and institutional purposes.
