Using the Internet on a Cruise Ship [From the Screen of Stone]

I recently was on a cruise ship for seven days. I normally process at least 60 to 80 e-mails per day (the vast majority of them AP-S, or at least IEEE, related). I thus can´t afford to go more than a day or two without being able to process e-mail, unless I´m prepared to spend a great of time catching up when I finally do again have connectivity. I was concerned about being able to effectively handle the e-mail on board the ship. As it turned out, there was a straightforward way of addressing the problem that worked amazingly well.
