ICE is an email helper application, which focuses on helping beginners learn how to perform basic email tasks.  ICE utilizes a “dummy” email system as its interface, in which users can perform actions such as creating, sending, deleting, etc.  From the helper size (left sidebar of the screen), users can choose a task and work through it, allowing the helper to perform certain functions (such as opening an email) whenever applicable.
