RCI ships to e-mail back home?

I was talking about sending the email C/O the ship and they print and deliver
it to the room.
To answer your question: If the passenger wants to email they can just pay to
use one of the computers.

There are two ways to send and recieve e-mail.

1. Use the internet kiosks. Use a web enabled e-mail account, your ISP
probably has a web portal for e-mail. Or use Yahoo, Gmail, etc. They
also claim to support e-mail accounts of AOL, Earthlink, Bellsouth.

2. Take a laptop and sign up for the in cabin dial-up service.

Thanks for your informative post, Charles. I was trying to avoid
bringing my laptop this time and was wondering what the set-up is at
the RCI internet locations (are there lines, waits to get online,
etc?) I may just reconsider my laptop if that's easier, and I can get
an in-cabin dial-up.

It has been a few years since I have been on Voyager but there were not
any lines or waits to get online. There were plenty of "online
stations" at the online center. A laptop is not going to be easier with
their "funky" dial up connection. The laptop connection would something
to do if you want to send a lot of e-mails or other internet use. If
you are just going to send a few e-mails use the RCI online stations.

Actually their computers and "dial-up" services are the slowest I have
seen in years - It is not the network as the sign up for your next
cruise computers in the Crown & Anchor room are really fast ... (but
then they DO charge you $.50 per minute, so I think that explains it).
