A ring R is said to be an E-ring if the map R → of E (R)+ into the ring of endomorphisms of its additive group via a ↪ al = left multiplication by a, is an isomorphism. In this note torsion free rings R for which the group Rl, of left multiplication maps by elements of R, is a full subgroup of E(R)+ will be considered. These rings are called TE-rings. It will be shown that TE-rings satisfy many properties of E-rings, and that unital TE-rings are E-rings. If R is a TE-ring, then E(R+) is an E-ring, and E(R+)+ / is bounded. Some results concerning additive groups of TE-rings will be obtained.
