Geez, folks. No matter how you feel about Peter, it would have been
much less work just to answer the question.

An e-mail client is the program you use to send, receive, manage, and
(usually) compose e-mail messages.

It is distinct from the "servers" which do the heavy work of passing
messages along the network.

As for the Peter's question being off-topic, I'm sure he wouldn't have
asked it if another list member hadn't suggested he "read the manual or
help site for your email client."
