Basic information of e-mail box

In the network, the e-mail box can automatically receive the e-mail sent by any e-mail box on the network, and can store electronic files with specified size and other formats. E-mail has a separate domain name, and its e-mail address is marked after @. The general format of e-mail is: user name @ domain name.

E-mail service is an information transmission service based on computer and communication network, which provides users with various types of information such as e-mail, digital fax of documents, images and digital voice by means of electric signal transmission and information storage. E-mail enables people to send and receive letters at any time, which solves the limitation of time and space and greatly improves work efficiency.

origin

In Fudan University and Shanghai Jiaotong University, a peculiar "post office" appeared in 1992. Here, instead of stamps and envelopes, a letter the size of stationery is delivered, and it only takes a few seconds for the letter to be displayed in front of the recipient. This is the mail. E-mail, like ordinary mail, also needs an address. Unlike ordinary mail, it is an electronic address. All users who have mailboxes on the Internet have their own e-mail addresses, and these e-mail addresses are unique. The mail server sends each email to each user's mailbox according to these addresses, and the email address is the user's email address. Just like ordinary mail, whether you can receive your email depends on whether you get the correct email address.

—A complete Internet e-mail address consists of the following two parts, with the following format: login name @ host name. Domain name.

The middle is separated by the symbol @, which means "in". On the left of the symbol is the login name of the other party, and on the right is the complete host name, which consists of host name and domain name. Among them, the domain name consists of several parts, each part is called a subdomain, and the subdomains are separated by dots. Each subdomain will tell users some information about this mail server. 1. The email address of the enterprise ends with the domain name of the company, so as to improve the corporate image of the company in the process of communicating with customers. And the free email address all end with the domain name of the service provider.

2. The management authority of the enterprise mailbox can modify the user's password, room, access rights, etc. , effectively prevent the company from losing business due to the resignation of the salesman.

3, high quality of service, effectively ensuring the smooth flow of corporate mail.

Although free email can also be used, it generally cannot meet the requirements of enterprise users. Especially the stability of sending and receiving, if the problem of not sending and receiving often occurs, it will definitely affect the business of the enterprise. Enterprise mailbox provides high-quality service for enterprise users, which has high security, stability and efficiency in sending and receiving, and also has high service ability in rejecting spam and virus mail.

4. Advantages of overseas freight forwarding.

As China is recognized as the second largest spam producer in the world by the international anti-spam organization, it often happens that emails sent overseas are rejected by free mailboxes. If the enterprise mailbox has an overseas forwarding server, this problem can be solved smoothly. Fast-the letter can be delivered to the other party in ten seconds.

In the autumn of 2000, ray Tomlinson studied the existing file transfer program and information program, and developed a new program, which can send and receive information through the computer network without any previous restrictions. In order to make people have easy-to-identify email addresses, Tomlinson decided to use the @ symbol, which is preceded by the user name and followed by the user's email address. E-mail was born. But at that time, only a few hundred users of ARPANET could use email.

In the mid-1980s, with the rise of personal computers, e-mail began to spread widely among computer addicts and college students. 1979 Eric Allman of Berkeley wrote delivermail. 1980, SMTP protocol appeared, and Eric upgraded delivermail to sendmail. It is a packaged product, and there is no "out-of-box authorization" restriction. Sendmail mail system has contributed to the vigorous development of e-mail.

In the mid-1990s, when WWW introduced the first concept of web browser, the number of Internet users around the world surged. With the widespread popularity of the Internet, e-mail services played an increasingly important role in our life, study and work.

1On September 20th, 987, Qian, known as "the first person on the Internet in China", sent China's first e-mail from Beijing to Karlsruhe University in the former Federal Republic of Germany via Italy, with the content of "Crossing the Great Wall and Going to the World". This is the first step for China people on the Internet, and it is also the first step for Yi Meier. This step is no less significant to China netizens than Armstrong's first step on the moon. He pioneered the Internet users in China.

Speaking of the first free mail system designed by China people, we can't help but mention Ding Lei, Chen Leihua and 163net. For China Internet, this is also a landmark event. The first set of free mail system was quickly put up on 163net by Ding Lei for free use by domestic netizens at that time. The first free electronic post office in China was born.

With the birth of the first free e-mail in China, many service providers took a fancy to the development potential of e-mail and started to operate free e-mail services. Sina, Sohu, China and other portals. Com began to set foot in e-mail service, which triggered an e-mail war between portals.

When e-mail service no longer has eye-catching effect, service providers begin to look for new profit growth points. At this time, several websites, such as 2 1cn, 263, 163, have successively launched paid mailboxes on the basis of maintaining their original free user services. Subsequently, Sina, the first portal in China, began to reduce the size of free mailboxes and launched a fee-based service. China's four major portals and two major websites began to announce some fees, which triggered a discussion upsurge of "charging or free".

On March 18, 2002, 263 Capital Online made a surprising move, announcing that it would completely stop providing free services after May 2 1. Many website CEOs and IT critics have commented on this matter. For domestic netizens, it is undoubtedly bad news. Some people commented that the move was too impulsive. Does the free era come to an end because of this landmark event?

In May, 2006, Yahoo launched a 3.5G 20M mailbox, and on June 7th, Netease mailbox was upgraded again and expanded into a 3G 20M mailbox with large capacity and large attachments. In less than a month, the two giants continued to expand mailbox capacity and increase attachment loading. It has brought great shock to the Internet, a large-scale revolutionary movement to the e-mail market and the formation of new standards in the e-mail market.

On September 3, 2007, Netease suddenly announced that it would upgrade all its mail systems on a large scale during Teacher's Day (September 10) and launch unlimited free mailboxes. Not to be outdone by Yahoo, the two giants have also launched unlimited free mailboxes. E-mail competition resurfaced.

The struggle between the two e-mail giants is in full swing, and Teng Xun has also upgraded its QQ mailbox in a low-key way. By June, 2007, QQ's free email address not only expanded to two G's, but also created a unique notepad function, which increased the attachment capacity to an amazing 1 G for the first time through the file transfer station. In connection with the binding with QQ client, the pace of Teng Xun entering the domestic e-mail field is unstoppable. Predictably, e-mail competition will become more and more fierce.

The development of e-mail is like a mirror, which reflects the mentality of network operators and netizens in China during the development of the Internet. In any case, e-mail is becoming more and more popular in people's life, work and study. At the same time, there is a trend to combine various means of communication to become a three-dimensional and all-round communication network. At the same time, e-mail also plays a very important role. It's hard to imagine what life would be like for netizens without e-mail. Let's wish e-mail and a bright tomorrow.
