Robert is only playing games with you. Yes, you need the internet to carry
e-mail messages to a destination (and visa versa). So you first find an
Internet Service Provider (ISP). This service allows you to connect to the
internet where you can find all kinds of services. Mail is one. Then you
select an E-mail provider. Usually the ISP will provide this service also.
This generally make it easier. Do you need further help?
