Document Summary

Or gmail is managed with your web browser and allows you to access your e-mail from the web. You can see your e-mail on any internet connected device, but not if you"re offline. E-mail client requires a program such as microsoft outlook to be installed on your computer. When you open the program the e-mail is downloaded to your computer. E-mails can always be printed or forwarded, so you may never know who reads your e- mails. Most e-mail content is not protected, so you should never send personal information such as banking information since this could lead to identity theft. Employers have access to all e-mails sent from a workplace. Even after an e-mail is deleted, it does not fully vanish. Many service providers archive e-mail which can be accessed in the event of a lawsuit or investigation. Use spell-checker and proofread your e-mail before sending it. Include a meaningful subject line to help recipients prioritize and organize e-mails.
