Email is a a way to send an electronic message from one computer to another over the Internet.
Email is a good way to keep in touch with friends, family, and acquaintances, as well as requesting other types of information you may need. An Email address works much the same as an address that you have on your street. If you receive regular mail from the Post Office, it consists of your name and your street address. There may be several names separated by dots in the address part of your EMail address. Sometimes the last one in this series can give you an indication about where this EMail address is and what sort of organization it is part of.
