personal email address, that can be accessed by the particular individual anywhere

and everywhere. Emails are being trending over mails because they’re easy to send

and hold less time consumption. But receiving a mail has its own charm, not to forget.

A. The differentiation between an email and a postal mail

Email is a derived term of mail. As nouns the difference between email and

2.2 The Advantages and Disadvantages of Email

A. Advantages

There are numerous advantages to email. It is personal and easy to use. It can

be used both within and between companies, and is an effective way to

communicate quickly and easily with people all over the world. It is especially

useful for short messages and for everyday correspondence, setting up a meeting ,
 passing on information, and making or replying to a request. You can pick up your

email messages, even when you are travelling, via a laptop. With compatible

systems, you can access text and graphic documents, and spread sheets and

whatever you send or receive can be quickly and easily filed.

B. Disadvantages

The disadvantages of email include technical problems which may result in

the unexpected non-delivery of messages or attachments arriving in unreadable

form. A non-technical disadvantage is that, paradoxically, the ease with which

messages can be sent results in large amounts of 'junk' and unnecessary

communication, which waste time.

As with faxes, a major drawback is the lack of privacy and security. Do not

use email to communicate confidential information. It is sometimes said that an

email message is like a postcard - anyone can read what you have written.

However, digital signing and encryption (coding data, so that it can only be read

by authorized users which both work along similar lines, make email more secure.
