Email Server

An email server is a computer system that manages the sending, receiving, and storage of email messages. Think of it as a digital post office: when you send an email, your email client (like Outlook or Gmail) contacts your email server, which then forwards the message to the recipient's server. When someone receives an email, their server stores and delivers it to their inbox. These servers use specific protocols to communicate securely and efficiently. Essentially, an email server acts as the infrastructure that ensures your electronic messages reach their destination reliably.
