How to Compose and Send a new email message
Once you are inside of one of your email accounts using the method explained above, you
should click on compose. Choosing this option will open a screen for creating a new
email message. The information you entered in the configuration will appear in the
correct boxes, leaving you to fill in two boxes: the email address of the person you
want to send your message to, and the subject line.
Additional Options Include:
CC -
This means Carbon Copy. Add additional addresses here if you want to send a copy of the
email to more than one person. Separate addresses with a comma, but do not add a space
between them. For example to send to three additional people you would enter
firstperson@email.com,2ndperson@email.com,thirdperson@email3.com.
BCC -
This means Blind Carbon Copy. When you use the Carbon Copy option above, all the email
addresses you entered will appear in the header of each recipient's message. You may not
want all the addresses to show in the headers, either because you don't want the main
recipient to know you are sending copies to others, or because you don't want to publish
everyone's email address without their permission. If you don't want the email addresses
to show, place them in the BCC box instead of the CC box. Add them the same way as
before, separated by commas but without any spaces between.
Attachment -
You can attach a file to your email message by clicking on the Browse button and choosing
the file that you want to send. However, remember that many of the files on your computer
are quite large in comparison to email messages. If the file is too big, the recipient's
ISP may reject it, or the recipient may choose not to open it due to excessive download
time.
