What Is Email Protocol?

Hello friends as you know that email protocol is a method by which a communication channel is established between two computers and email is transferred between them. When an email is transferred, a mail server and two computers are involved. One computer sends the mail and the other one receives it. The mail server stores the mail and lets the receiving device access it and download it if needed. There are four different mail protocols.

1)POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3):-

This is a simple, standardized protocol that allows users to access their mailboxes on the Internet and download messages to their computers. The simple design of POP3 allows casual email users who have a temporary Internet connection (dial-up access) to access emails. They can read their emails, draft new emails or reply to emails while they are offline, and can send these emails when they are back online. Yahoo! Mail (mail.yahoo.com) is an example of a mail server that uses POP3 protocol.




2)IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol):-

This is a standard protocol used for email transfer by users. Like POP3, it also supports both online and offline modes of email access. The email message is downloaded to the user's machine only when a specific request is made to read it. Users can download mails to their computers while keeping a copy on the server. The mails on the server are the primary copy and anything changed on the local machine is updated by what is on the server.Users can also create new mailboxes which are shown as folders on the server, and move messages between folders. This feature allows access to shared and public folders.Gmail is an example of a mail server which uses IMAP protocol.

3)SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol):-

SMTP is a simple, text-based protocol that works best when devices are interconnected to each other. However, SMTP protocol can only be used to send emails. Unlike POP3 and IMAP protocols, SMTP does not provide the functionality to the users to retrieve emails from the server.One of the main issues with SMTP is the lack of sender email authentication. SMTP lacks security features too and thus users get spam emails.UNIX systems and simple applications like "mailsend" make use of SMTP protocol.

4)HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol):-

 HTTP is not used exclusively for mail transfer, but it plays a vital part for users who use Internet browsers for accessing their mails (both for sending and receiving).Hotmail and Yahoo! use HTTP protocol for accessing emails through the Internet.

What is cc: and bcc: in email?

Hello friends, cc:(carbon copy) made it possible to send the same letter to two different people without write or type it twice.A carbon copy of the message is also sent to all the addresses listed in the Cc: field.we can write  more than one email address in this field, and they all get a copy. To enter more than one address in the Cc: field, we have to separet it with comma. When you send a message to more than one address using the Cc: field, both the original recipient and all the recipients of the carbon copies see the To: and Cc: fields including all the addresses in them.This means that every recipient gets to know the email addresses of all the persons that received your message.



The long version of "Bcc" is "blind carbon copy". Bcc: is a nice and powerful tool.The Bcc: field helps you deal with the problems created by Cc:.  a copy of the message goes to every single email address appearing in the Bcc: field.The difference is that neither the Bcc: field itself nor the email addresses in it appear in any of the copies (and not in the message sent to the person in the To: field either).The only recipient address that will be visible to all recipients is the one in the To: field.

     Thanking You Guys.....

What Is Mail Merge?

Hello friends this is something different and really useful feature for lazy persons:):):):):)

A mail merge is a capability of database software, word processors, and some e-mail programs that takes a standard form and formats that form with unique fields such as e-mail address, name, address, phone number, or other personal information to make the message look unique. For example, a standard form may look like the below example.

[address]


Dear [username],


We would like to thank you [username] for purchasing our product.


Sincerely,
Some company

With a program capable of mail merge, the program would pull the personal information and place the appropriate information into the above fields. So the above form may look like:

1234 some street
City, State Zip


Dear Bob Smith,


We would like to thank you Bob Smith for purchasing our product.


Sincerely,
Some company


                      Thanking You Friends.......
