Click on this arrow to return to the previous pageThis presentation (which was originally done at the Connecticut Library Association Annual Conference on April 6, 1999 at the Radisson Hotel, Cromwell, CT) is intended to help you understand what you can do with email rather than to train you on a specific email program. You can use this presentation as a tutorial by going through the pages in sequence, or use it as a quick reference by going directly to a specific topic.
We created these web pages on a Macintosh computer, and most of the examples we show are from the Macintosh versions of popular email programs. The Windows versions look different, but do the same things.
Here is an explanation of the icons we have used on these pages.
