W: Well, it seems to me that everybody’s talking about E-mail nowadays. When you exchange cards with others, you’ll feel out of time and start at a disadvantage if your card hasn’t an E-mail address on it.
M: I wouldn’t be surprised, because, you know, it’s the easiest way to communicate with other users over a network.
W: Is it? But I was told that we must set up an E-mail system on the network before we can communicate with other users. Is that true?
M: Yes, it’s not tough to create such a system. However, you need some hardware and software to support it.
W: Let me know the hardware needed first.
M: A computer and a line that connects your computer with the Internet.
W: All right. I was told that I need an account for my E-mail. Where can I get it?
M: You can contact an ISP, I mean an Internet Service Provider, to get an account.
W: How much do I have to pay for it?
M: It varies. You can also get a free E-mail account if you don’t have to consider too much for the security of your mails. I know many people prefer free E-mails and they say their correspondence through that kind of account doesn’t involve commercial information needed to be strictly kept secret. You can get such a free account simply at home if you have got access to a website with such a service.
W: It’s so convenient. I may prefer the free E-mail. What about the software?
M: You don’t need any additional software. Just the IE, the Internet Explorer, bound with Windows, the operating system.
W: Thank you so much for your help.
