: You can't simply decide you want to connect to a government account! First of all, you would have to have some kind of internet service provider. Second, you would have to have specific software installed on your PC by your employer allowing you to have as secure a connection as possible. I know this, because since my state agency is undergoing a massive remodeling project, I work at least half of every day from home using what is called a virtual private network which was specifically configured by my employer.

There must be a way to connect to the government account or people would not be able to get e-mail from their black berry. I could also forward what e-mails I want to keep from one account to the other. Guess I will have to check it out. What do I have to pay my phone company for DHL or wireless? As you can see, I am a dumby in this area. Thanks for any help.
