Setting Up Your <strong>Opt</strong>imum E-Mail (cont.)<br />

Using an E-Mail Application on Your Main Computer<br />

An e-mail application (or e-mail client) is a program specifically designed to help you manage,<br />

organize, monitor and filter your e-mail. By using an e-mail application, your messages will<br />

reside on your computer’s hard drive. Instructions for setting up common e-mail applications are<br />

available on the <strong>Opt</strong>imum Web site. Simply visit optimumbusiness.com and type the name of your<br />

e-mail application into the “Need Help” field for assistance.<br />
