My personal preference is Thunderbird, but many business professionals
use Microsoft Outlook.

Zip files
These are archived files - groups of files squeezed together into one
large file in such a manner that the whole is much small than the sum of
it's parts, making for faster transmission over the net. Some are self-extracting,
others require the appropriate decompression software, the most popular
of which is WinZip. You can get a copy of this from any of the software
repositories on the net, and there are probably several excellent open
source programs - Winrar would be worth a look.
Saving a Page to File
In Internet Explorer, top left corner click File > Save As >
then choose a location to save it, preferably a directory (folder)
which you access frequently and in which you keep your working files, for
instance c:/work
under file name change it to something short, ie boxer
under Save as type select Webpage, HTML only
Encoding: Western European (should be default)
Click Save
There is a similar routine in Firefox, and probably in Chrome.
