Electronic mail (abbreviated "e-mail"
or, more commonly, "email") is a
store and forward method of
composing, sending, storing, and
receiving messages over
electronic communication systems.
The term "e-mail" (as a noun or verb)
applies both to the
Internet e-mail system based on the
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
and to
intranet systems allowing users
within one organization to e-mail each
other. Often these
workgroup
collaboration organizations may use
the
Internet protocols for internal
e-mail service.
