Using electronic mail to transfer files

    If you have access to the Internet and have an electronic mail (email) account, you can use your account to transfer files from one computer to another.

    To transfer files using electronic mail:
    1 On the computer that has the file you want to transfer, open your email application and access your account.
    2 Create a message, attach the desired file or document, and send the email to your own email account.
    For more information, see the documentation that came with your email application.
    3 On the computer where you want to receive the file, set up your Internet access and email account information, if you haven't done so already.
    4 Open your email application and access your account.
    Read your email and download the attached file. For more information on sending attachments, see the documentation that came with your email application.
