Setup (cont'd)

If you're using an e-mail client on a computer which is also used by others:

remember to set your e-mail address, otherwise any messages you send out may carry someone else's address
remember to delete your messages and your username when you've finished; otherwise other people will be able to read your mail and send messages in your name.

If the computer is part of a local network, this may be taken care of automatically by your login account on the network.
