and e-mail clients to send data via the Internet. PCT is
able to negotiate encryption keys as well as authenticate a
server before data is exchanged by the higher level application.

retrieve e-mail from a mail server. Most e-mail
applications (sometimes called e-mail clients) use the
POP protocol, although some may use the newer IMAP
(Internet Message Access Protocol).

HP Jornada uses to communicate with the ISP network
server.

containing data that normally can only be read, not

random access memory (RAM)
, the data in ROM is not
lost when power is turned off.
