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 e-mail address. Every PC user should have it. Without it, you can not register on sites, subscribe to mailing lists, gain access to closed resources and forums. It is also needed for some programs to work.

Such distribution of e-mail is due to the fact that services for sending messages are available and understandable to every person. They appeared a long time ago, but still remain relevant. E-mail does not require a 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 do not like online services, install special utilities on your computer - mail clients.

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

You can send messages of any length, add attachments to them: files, pictures, documents. Such a letter will be delivered instantly. Most email services have a huge amount of text formatting tools. Different fonts, styles, colors, background insertion, drawings are available. You can send a real 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. You can use numbers, punctuation marks and some other symbols. This is the generally accepted standard. Here's what an email address looks like: [email protected]". Let's take a closer look at each part of the address.

The structure of an email address is not that complicated.

• Login (login). This is your username or "nickname". A unique identifier by which the system for receiving and sending messages will calculate that this is your e-mail. You have to invent it yourself. It can be anything, the main thing is that it does not coincide with the nickname that already exists in the mail service. When registering an e-mail, you may receive a warning "This login is already taken" or something similar. Then you need to come up with and write down a different name. It is not necessary to change it completely - just add some numbers or symbols to it to make it unique.
• Next comes the delimiter symbol "@". 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 print it in the English layout). This sign is required in all e-mail - it stands between the login and the domain. It is called differently in different countries. For example, in Finland it is "Cat" or "Cat's tail", in Italy - "Snail", in Bulgaria - "Monkey", in the USA - just "at". On public Internet resources, this symbol is sometimes replaced with "at" in brackets. This is done so that the address does not fall into the databases of spam bots. When sending messages, replace "at" with "@".
• Domain (domain). The URL of the service where the e-mail is registered. It can be a corporate or any free site (for example, mail.ru or gmail.com). Many resources offer several domain options. You can't come up with it yourself - you can only choose. Many organizations create their own domains, but this is done for a fee.

3. Fill in the fields. Usually you need to write a name, the desired login, specify a security question and answer to it, set a password. If you do not want to enter your real name, you can replace it with a nickname. But in e-mail, which is needed for work or some official business, it is better to write the correct user data so that they appear in messages to your clients, colleagues and employers.
4. The password should preferably be complex. Not related to login, name, date of birth or something 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 registration.

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

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