Abstract :
The paper discusses a virtual mail system. V-mail is designed to be used in the CAVE virtual environment. The participants´ mail messages and the ongoing modifications of the VE are maintained by a central server. V-mail´s user interface is embodied in a virtual friend or pet that follows the participant as he/she interacts with the VE
