e-mail/電子郵件 (Source: wiki, Google網路字典)

Electronic mail, often abbreviated as email, e.mail or e-mail, is a method of exchanging digital messages, designed primarily for human use. E-mail systems are based on a store-and-forward model in which e-mail computer server systems accept, forward, deliver and store messages on behalf of users, who only need to connect to the e-mail infrastructure, typically an e-mail server, with a network-enabled device (e.g., a personal computer) for the duration of message submission or retrieval. Originally, e-mail was always transmitted directly from one user's device to another's; nowadays this is rarely the case.





電子郵件，通常縮寫為E-mail，電子函件或電子郵件，是一種交換數字信息的方法，主要目的是設計給人類使用。電子郵件系統是基於存儲轉發模式，即由電子郵件的電腦伺服器系統接收，轉發，傳遞和存儲信息的用戶代表，誰只需要連接到電子郵件的基礎設施，通常E-mail郵件服務器，與網絡功能的設備（如個人電腦）會持續時間的為郵件提交或檢索。最初，電子郵件是直接從一個用戶的設備傳送到另一個的，現在這是難以實現的。
