Let me say you have 24 hours left to submit an important file to your MD (Managing Director) and you can not hand deliver this file because your MD is oversees. You go straight to the Post office to post this file, yet another obstacle in case you didn't notice it take about five days for the post to reach the destination. Fast mail take about plus or minus two days. Electronic mail take about less than two minute to reach destination. E-mail might seems as a solution to this problem but let me make my own comparison of this two method.
E-mail Ordinary Post
1The receiver need to be online to view the mail. 1Once posted it is done
2 No lost of your mail because if the receiver is offline 2 In case the mail is lost it is not possible
the mail server hold the mail till the the receive is (not that you can't) to recover it).
reachable.
3 Take less than a minute. 3 Take days.
These were comparison according to me and I do understand that some of you might see this the other way around, well no idea or opinion is wrong as long as it have something positive. I think it is time consider the fast method when we are sending files not in bulk ( I do not think you can send file up to fivety pages in E-mail). Let us debate this further.
