What is an email client?

An email client is a desktop software application meant to run on your computer so that you can compose, send and receive emails. Well known email clients are Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook, Netscape Mail and Eudora Pro / Light.

I have web-based email, do I still need an email client?

Your incoming emails are collected and stored at your hosting provider. You can then access your emails using the web-based mail or download them to your computer.

It is highly recommended that you download your emails regularly and not leave them at your hosting provider. Accumulating your emails online often results in difficulties receiving new emails, especially those with attachments.

To download your email to your computer, you will need an email client.

Do I have an email client? Where I do obtain one?

If your computer is running on Microsoft Windows, chances are you already have Microsoft Outlook Express email client pre-installed for you. It comes free with Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 onwards.
