Answer4:-. The components of an e-mail address are as follows:

1. User: It is the username or e-mail ID, say any nickname, alias, group or department of any organization. It is
used to identify the user at the e-mail service provider.
2. Divider: The @ (pronounced as ‘at’ or at the rate of) symbol is used as the divider in the e-mail address, which
differentiates between the username and the domain name. It is compulsorily required in all the e-mail addresses.
3. Domain Name: A domain name shows the website name in which the e-mail account has been created.
Question 6.:- List some tips for writing a good email message.
All e-mail systems have a Spam filter, which filters out all the spam e-mails and sends them to the Junk E-mail folder instead of
Inbox. Therefore, to avoid sending your message to the Spam folder, make sure you use a good subject for your message. Avoid
using single words, like Hi, Thanks, etc. And write the complete sentence. The subject of a message should be meaningful,
which can tell the receiver the actual purpose of the e-mail.
Avoid writing lengthy messages. Your message should be such that it is conveyed to the receiver sensibly. Therefore, make it
very simple and short.
1. Never use the abridged format of the language as you use for SMS, that is, avoid using short forms and write the words in
full. You need to take care of the casing also. The message should be in the sentence case only.
2. For formal e-mails, follow the style of the formal letters as you do for the manual letters. Always start with Sir/Madam or
the first name in the greeting. On the other hand, with informal e-mails or for the casual ones like if you are sending an e-
mail to your friend, you can use the casual writing style with emoticons,
3. Always provide your full name in the e-mail so that a new person can easily recognise you. This is necessary if your e-mail
address is not telling about your identity. O Make a habit of reading your typed e-mail before clicking on the Send button.
This will give you an opportunity to correct any spelling mistake that you might have done or missed some information.

codes DNA or RNA that take over the machinery of a living cell and are capable of making
thousands of replicas of the original virus. Like biological virus, the computer virus carries
in it an instructional code that makes copies of itself. In computer, the virus takes temporary
control of the disk operating system and when it comes in contact with an uninfected
computer, the virus passes onto the uninfected computer also.
It is assumed that Biological viruses and Computer viruses are the same entity, because both
cause infection and damage to their host/target. Although some of their features &
characteristics are same but they are quite different from each other.

computer in many ways such as:
