For example, the size of the letter you send is in no way dependent on the size of your mailbox, because the letter does not go into the mailbox when sent. Please note that the purpose of the incoming and outgoing mail servers is different. Mail is received from the incoming mail server, and mail is sent from the outgoing server.

Therefore, it is important to know what an email address is and how to write it correctly. Thanks to this service, you can quickly contact someone, send important documents, or simply chat with a person who is far from you.

We will tell you how to become the owner of a mailbox on the Internet

Electronic Mail (e-mail) services are used everywhere. Each organization or institution, along with other contacts, always has an email address. Any PC user should have it. Without it, you cannot register on websites, subscribe to mailing lists, or gain access to closed resources and forums. It is also needed for some programs to work.

This spread of email is due to the fact that services for sending messages are accessible and understandable to every person. They appeared a long time ago, but still remain relevant. Not needed for email powerful computer or fast internet. There are many different sites where you can register it. Everyone has a different interface and functionality, so there are options for every taste. If you don’t like online services, install special utilities on your computer - email clients.

The e-mail address is unique for each user. It's like a phone number or a zip code - no two are alike.

You can send messages of any length and add attachments to them: files, pictures, documents. Such a letter will be delivered instantly. Most email services have a huge range of text formatting tools. Various fonts, styles, colors, background insertion, and pictures are available. You can send the real one greeting card. And the recipient will see it on the same day.

What does an e-mail address consist of?

E-mail has a clear structure and is formed in a certain way. It consists of several elements. The elements themselves may vary, but they must be written in Latin letters. It is acceptable to use numbers, punctuation marks and some other symbols. This is the generally accepted standard. This is what the email address looks like: “login@domain”. Let's look at each part of the address in more detail.

The structure of an email address is not that complicated

  • Login (login). This is your username or "nickname". Unique identificator, by which the system for receiving and sending messages will calculate that this is your e-mail. You have to come up with it yourself. It can be anything, the main thing is that it does not coincide with a nickname that already exists in postal service. When registering an email, a warning “This login is already taken” or something similar may appear. Then you need to come up with and write down another name. It is not necessary to change it completely - just add some numbers or symbols to it to make it unique.
  • Next comes the separator character “@”. It is called "Commercial at" or simply "Dog". On the keyboard it is located in the same place as the button with the number “2” (you can type it in the English layout). This sign is required in all e-mails - it stands between the login and the domain. IN different countries it is called by different names. For example, in Finland it is “Cat” or “Cat’s tail”, in Italy it is “Snail”, in Bulgaria it is “Monkey”, in the USA it is simply “at”. On public Internet resources, this symbol is sometimes replaced with “at” in parentheses. This is done so that the address does not end up in spambot databases. When sending messages, you must replace “at” with “@”.
  • Domen (domain). URL of the service where the e-mail is registered. This can be a corporate or any free site (for example, mail.ru or gmail.com). Many resources offer several domain options. You cannot invent it yourself - you can only choose it. Many organizations create their own domains, but this comes at a cost.

See how to write an email address with a specific example: “ [email protected]», « [email protected]».

How to register an email?

Several sites with the function of free e-mail registration:

  • Yandex
  • Gmail
  • Rambler

Viewing your inbox on Google is quite convenient

They're not just for composing email. Each of them has a huge range of informational, entertaining or simply useful services. To obtain a personal address, you must do the following:

  1. Go to the resource.
  2. There will be a button “Create an account”, “Register”, “Register email” or something similar.
  3. Fill in the fields. Usually you need to write your name, desired login, indicate a security question and answer to it, and set a password. If you don’t want to enter your real name, you can replace it with a nickname. But in an e-mail that is needed for work or some official business, it is better to write correct user data so that it is displayed in messages to your clients, colleagues and employers.
  4. It is advisable to make the password complex. Not related to login, name, date of birth or anything similar. So that it cannot be picked up.
  5. The login may consist of letters of the Latin alphabet, numbers or special characters. If you enter an invalid character, the system will warn you about it.
  6. Confirm your registration.

Dialogue for creating a mailbox in one of the systems

Large organizations register their own domains. It looks presentable. Serious companies prefer not to use free e-mail services.

If you don't know how to come up with an email address, try something like this:

  • Last name with initials or abbreviated full name. You can add numbers, dots, dashes, and underscores. Convenient for business communication. From the login it is immediately clear who it belongs to.
  • A nickname that you often use on the Internet. Those who know you by this nickname will be able to recognize your email at first glance.
  • In some services, the address is automatically generated from your name (if you specified it). The system will offer several logins to choose from. If one of them suits you, use it.
  • It's better to create a nickname that is easy to remember. You should not specify an incoherent set of letters or numbers if you intend to use the service in the future for communication or work.

How to send an email?

Do you want to send something by e-mail? It's very easy to do.

  1. Log in to your email site or launch your email client.
  2. Click the New Email button. It may be called differently.
  3. In the To field, enter your address.
  4. In the Subject field, briefly describe what your message is about. The first thing the recipient will see is the sender's email and this subject.
  5. The largest field is for the body (content) of the letter.
  6. When finished, click on “Submit”.

Webmail interface various services approximately the same

It’s quite easy to figure out how a user’s email address is generated. It consists of three parts: login, @ separator character and domain name. These elements are fixed and cannot be swapped. Each email is a unique set of characters; no two are alike. You can come up with a login, you can just choose a domain from the proposed options. The address must consist of Latin letters, numbers or some symbols.

Nowadays, email is needed everywhere: making an appointment with a doctor, buying tickets online, registering on social networks. Therefore, I will tell you how to quickly and freely create a new mailbox on Mail.ru

Registering a mailbox on Mail.ru

To register, go to the website mail.ru(enter into your browser's address bar). A page will open with a special form in the upper left corner.

Start of registration in mail ru mail

Registering a new mailbox on mail.ru

The page opens Registration. There is nothing difficult about filling out the registration form. First name 1, last name 2, date of birth 3 are required, but no one will check whether you wrote honestly or not. You select your gender by switching button 4.

How to choose a mailbox name (mail address)

In the line Desired mailing address 5, options for email names will appear, compiled automatically, taking into account your first name, last name, and date of birth. You can choose from the list provided, or you can choose a good name yourself.

The name must be 4-31 characters. In addition to Latin (English) letters, you can use numbers, underscores (_), a period, or a hyphen (-), but the name of the mailbox cannot begin with these characters. Be prepared for the fact that the simple name you want to use is already taken and you will receive a response that “A mailbox with the same name already exists.”

You can choose a mailbox name in four domains: mail.ru, inbox.ru, list.ru, bk.ru. Yours Email, depending on this, may look like this: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected].

If in the same domain beautiful name busy, then check in other domains. To do this, click on the domain that is visible in window 6 (in my example - bk.ru), a list of four domains will open, and you select the one you like from the list. When you finish choosing the name of the mailbox, proceed to entering the password.

How to choose a strong password for your mailbox
