F: Just like writing aletter?

 

L: Yes. After writing, youcan send it.

 

F: How to send it?

 

L: Run your mail programand type the address you want to send the mail to.

 

F: Then, what shall I do?

 

L: You can press Tab toskip to the subject field and type a Subject.

 

F: Can I send the E-mailafter finishing that all?

 

L: Yes, you can. Have youknown how to do that?

 

F: Yes, I got it. Thankyou. But I have one more question. How shall I send a Word document?

 

L: It’s the same as usual. Theonly different lies in that you need to paste the Word document as anattachment.

 

F: Can I E-mail severalWord documents that are large files altogether?

 

L: I think so, but you willprobably need to compress the documents together into a ZIP file, and thenpaste it as an attachment. There are limitations to the capacity of an E-mail.Commonly it’s not more than 10MB.

 

F: I see. Thank you verymuch.

 

L: My pleasure. You canfirst try to send me an E-mail, if you want.

 

F: OK. I will.
