Introduction
You can use DR-WebSpyder as your Internet browser and E-mail program.
You need to ask your service provider to set up your E-mail account and
provide you with your E-mail information such as your E-mail name.
When you first go in to the E-mail page, you automatically go to
your In Box where your E-mail is displayed.
When you are connected to the Internet, you can download any new E-mails
you may have simply by clicking one button. You can also send E-mails very
easily using the simple tabbed pages to help you. If you do not always
have a connection to the Internet, you can still write new E-mails but instead
of sending them straight away, you can save them in your Unsent box. When
you next have a connection to the Internet, you can choose to send your
E-mails and you can even edit them again before sending them.

Writing E-Mail
In the Inbox, select the Create tab. The Create Mail page is displayed.
Type your E-mail message in the main box. You then need to type in
the E-mail address of the person you are sending it to. It will probably
be in the form of name@company.com.
If you want to copy someone else with the E-mail, you can enter that
persons E-mail address in the "CC" text box.
It is always good practice when sending E-mail, to let the recipients know
what your E-mail is about. Type in some details of what your E-mail is
about in the "Subject" field.
You can send attachments with your E-mail such as a graphic or
document. Simply type in the location and name of the file you want to
send with your E-mail in the "Attachment" text box.
You can either save it and send the E-mail later (it will be stored in
your Unsent box) or send it straight
away.
You might want to send it later because you are not connected to the
Internet at the moment
or you can get cheaper phone calls perhaps at certain times of the day
or there may be something you want to add to the message later.
