In Chapter 11, you can see how to use Contacts and Maps to find people and places. In this chapter, I take a look at two more terrific programs — Mail and Messages — that work with Contacts to make managing your email and messages (chats) a breeze.

Sending and Receiving Email with Mail

tip.eps I cover a lot of material in not a lot of space in this chapter, so if there’s something you want to find out about Mail or Messages that I don’t cover, don’t forget about the wonderful assistance you can find in Help⇒Mail Help (or Messages Help).

9781118991190-ma066.tif Mail is a program for sending, receiving, and organizing your email. Mail is fast and easy to use, too. Click the Mail icon on the Dock or Launchpad or double-click the Mail icon in the Applications folder to launch Mail. The Mail icon looks like a canceled postage stamp, as shown in the margin.
