`
`Back in 1992, people did not know muchaboutthe Internet unless they were in college, in the
`military, or computer geeks. My, how things have changed! Today many people, even people
`who don’t consider themselves “‘into computers,” not only know whatthe Internet is, but use it
`on a regularbasis.
`How doyouuse the Internet? Chances are good that you use e-mail to send messagesto
`friends and loved ones around the world. You probably surf the Webto listen to music, check
`stock prices or sports scores, buy CDsor books, and follow the news. Perhaps you makefriends
`by interacting with them in an online forum, or keep in touch with other friends by using instant
`messaging.
`Regardless of what you do, chancesare also goodthat the Internet is becoming increasingly
`important to you. E-mail might be the only way you communicate with coworkers, or perhaps
`you makea living building websites for companies. As access to the Internet becomes more
`important, many people are seeking ways to stay connected, wherever they may be.
`For that task, Pocket PCs are well suited. The combination of their small size, software, and
`the communications hardware makesit easy to get connected. Inbox, a program that works with
`Internet e-mail servers, and Microsoft Outlook is included with every device. In this chapter, you
`learn how to use Inbox to send and receive e-mail. In Chapter 21, you learn how to send and
`receive instant messages; and in Chapter 22, you learn how to browse websites.
`
`Use Inbox to Work with E-Mail
`Oneof the first acts of the new United States Congress in 1789 wasto authorize a postal service,
`creating 75 local post offices covering 1,875 miles. The fact that one ofthe first acts of a new
`nation wasthe establishmentof a postal service highlights the importance of mail delivery at that
`time. As the nation grew, mail became more important for communication. For example, the Pony
`Express is credited with keeping California in the Union by providing rapid communication
`between the two coasts.
`In 1861, the Pony Express gave way to the telegraph, introducing technology as a means of
`speeding communication. Ever since then, technology—from telephonesto satellites—has been
`used to speed communication around the world. In the 1990s e-mail came into widespread use,
`reducing the time to deliver messages around the world from days to seconds. Today weare
`accustomed to writing a message, clicking a button, and expecting it to end up around the world
`as soon as the button is released.

`As e-mail becomes more important, methods for sending andreceiving e-mail, no matter
`where we may be, also become important. Combined with the right commu
