For exchanging electronic mail (e-mail) with users working on
    internet hosts, the TCP/IP Services product includes Simple Mail
    Transfer Protocol (SMTP), Post Office Protocol (POP) software,
    and Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP).

    SMTP allows you to use the OpenVMS mail services to send and
    receive messages exchanged with users on other hosts. The POP and
    IMAP software allow you to use your PC mail software to receive
    and send messages. The software stores mail sent to you, even
    when the PC is turned off.

    To use TCP/IP mail services, you need the following:

    o  Knowledge of the OpenVMS Mail utility

    o  User names and host names or IP addresses of the people to
       whom you want to send mail
