I E-mailed this person and we corresponded back and forth a few times until I learned exactly how all this worked. There are many shareware and other programs on the market now that you can use to send yourself or other employees E-mail messages from your own computer. You may also use a service to handle your E-mail for you and you won't have to worry about configuring anything if your not technical. I use a service called Interpage.

One that I use regularly is the Mail filters options. I telnet to Interpage, and enter my password to access my preferences.
