    E-Mail Address

                      You need to have an electronic address to send and receive e-mails. This electronic

                      address  is called  e-mail address.  The              orangeeducation123@gmail.com
                      e-mail address is unique for  every
                                                                                      Username           Domain name
                      Internet user. Some examples of e-mail
                      addresses are as under:

                           orangeeducation123@gmail.com                                   vikas@yahoo.co.in

                      Although, these e-mail addresses have different formats depending upon the type
                      of network but, they always have same form—a username and a domain name—

                      separated by @ (pronounced as ‘at’) symbol. The portion before the at (@) symbol
                      is called the username and the later one is called domain name.

                      The username is unique to every  individual sending or  receiving  e-mails. The
                      domain name is common to all the individuals using a particular server or network

                      for sending or receiving e-mails.

                        The  first  e-mail  was  sent  by  Ray  Tomlinson  in  1971.  It  was  a  test  message

                        sent between two computers that were right next to each other. The content
                        was likely 'QWERTYUIOP.' He also used the '@' symbol in e-mail addresses to
                        separate the user's name from the computer's name.
