Mile som. How to create and protect your Gmail inbox. Useful Settings and Gmail Lab

Gmail.com (jimail or gmail) is the world's largest email site. It belongs to the Google search engine. Here you can create an email for free, and also get a Disk (storage for your files) with it.

1 . Open the website gmail.com. Click on “Create an account” below.

2. Fill out the form on the right side.

First and last name. Here you need to provide your details, preferably real ones. After all, if you suddenly have difficulties logging into the mailbox in the future, then thanks to this information you will be able to regain access. If desired, this data can later be hidden.

Username. A very important field - this will be the name of your mailbox (login). It should consist only of English letters; you can also use numbers and dots. You just need to come up with it and print it.

This is the email address (e-mail) where letters will be sent. This is exactly what you will need to tell the person so that he can send you something.

There may be problems choosing a username. The fact is that each such login is unique - it belongs to only one person. And many names have already been registered, which means they cannot be selected.

Let's say I want to get the umnik login. I type it into the field and press the Enter button on the keyboard. The system does not allow such a name - it says it is too short.

Okay, so I add a couple more letters and press Enter. But Google doesn’t like it again: it turns out that this name has already been taken by someone.

Just below the system shows logins that are free for registration. Google automatically combined them from my first and last name, and also added something similar to what I came up with.

You can choose any of them. But I advise you to work a little more and choose something better - shorter and easier to remember. The fact is that this name will no longer be changed.

Of course, you can then register another mailbox and set up mail forwarding to it from the old address. But why such difficulties if you can immediately choose a normal name.

To simplify the task, after entering the desired login, press the Enter button and see what the system offers. It will show a different free title after each click. Maybe something will do.

If the name is free for registration, then after pressing Enter, the field for entering it will not be highlighted in red.

Many people don't realize at first how important it is to have a good address. Of course, if mail is needed not for correspondence, but for something else (registration in Google Play, for example), then any name will do. But if you plan to receive letters to it, then the address is very, very important.

Ideally, it should be simple and not too long, so that it can be dictated over the phone. Preferably without numbers and dots. And no “babies”, “beauties” and “pussies”!

It’s very funny when a serious guy’s business card says puzatik45.

Password and password confirmation. Here you need to print an alphanumeric code with which you will open your box. It can only contain letters of the English alphabet and numbers, and must be at least eight characters long. It is highly desirable that the letters be of different case (both large and small) - this will make it more difficult for hackers to hack the mailbox.

Be sure to write this password down in a safe place!

It’s been verified: it’s forgotten instantly, but you simply won’t be able to log into your email without it.


Date of birth, gender These fields are also required. Information from them will not be used anywhere. As with the first/last name, it is better to indicate your real data. This will make it easier to regain access to the mailbox if problems arise with logging in.

Other information. Mobile phone, spare email address. mail and country - this data may not be specified.

3. After filling in all required fields, click “Next”. If the system does not let you in, it means that some field is not filled in as it should. It will be highlighted in red, and just below it will be written what is wrong with it.


4 . A window will appear in which the conditions for registering with gmail.com will be written. They must be accepted, otherwise you will not receive the box.


The “I Accept” button will become available only after you have read them.


That's all! The mailbox is registered and Google is happy to provide its address. We write it down in a safe place and click on “Go to Gmail service”.


Immediately after this your new mail will open

E-mail address

If you carefully read what I said before, you should remember the username. I said that this is exactly your email address. But this is not entirely true: every mail on the Internet has one more part in addition to the login. In the case of Google, this is @gmail.com

It turns out that the correct name of the email account consists of the username (login) and the prefix @gmail.com. And this address must be one continuous word without spaces. There is no period at the end.

An example of a correctly written address:

This is the full name that needs to be dictated to people, written on business cards, websites and other places. If you give a person only a shortened version, he will not be able to send the letter - it simply will not arrive. But only the address must be your own, and not the one written in this picture :)

How to find out your mailbox address

In addition, if attackers try to hack your mailbox, it will be much more difficult for them to do so. However, the telephone number may not be specified. Instead it will be enough specify a security question and the answer to it. For security reasons, choose a question and answer that only you know. After filling out all the fields, click the “Next” button to create your first Google mail.


Basic Google Mail settings

To set up your Mailbox, personalize it, and create comfortable conditions For further operation, follow the steps described in the mail-google login section.

Here you can create your own contact address book for quickly writing letters, set the language of the mail itself, choose a design theme, set the text style and much, much more.


Interesting and unique features:

  • Chains– correspondence between the same recipients with the same topic are grouped into a conversation list. This makes it possible not to miss a single letter from correspondence and always be aware of events.
  • Notifications– translucent notifications will pop up on top of all windows indicating that a new e-mail has arrived. This is very important if you don’t want to miss an e-mail while doing other work on your PC.
  • Significance markers– the system will display a special icon next to letters whose sender has marked them as important.
  • Categories– sorting letters into specific categories. This makes it possible to separate the most important letters, mark them according to certain parameters and distribute them into folders.

And, of course, standard, but very useful features that can be found Google users mail in your mail settings: autoresponder, signature and filters.

Of course, all these additional settings will help you make the most comfortable use of the postal service from Google.

It is also worth describing the service that is integrated into the mail – “ Tasks". This seemingly ordinary electronic organizer is not as simple as it seems at first glance. It can remind you by email or SMS that you have a meeting scheduled, for example, after a certain time. Having set a task even a year in advance, be sure that the service will not forget about it. If your plans have changed, you can delete the task. And there will be no trace of her.

By the way, about contacts. They can export and import. This is very convenient if you have several email accounts and want to use the same contacts for correspondence.

How to send an email from gmail?

  1. In order to send an email, you need open google mail website, log into your account and click on the “Write” button.

  6. Download speed will depend on size file and Internet access speed. You will be notified of the download progress by a filling blue bar.

In case you need send a large file– then it does not need to be attached to the letter. Upload it to the Google Drive service, and send only a link to it to the recipient. This will significantly speed up both your sending and the process of receiving the letter.

Besides, sending heavy letters is bad manners. Remember, the larger the size of your letter, the longer it will take to reach the recipient. All yours sent letters you can find it in the appropriate folder.

Video lessons: how to create and configure gmail com?

Hello friends. In the last article we covered. Today's topic or how to register in Google.

For those people who do not yet have their own mailbox there, I advise you to create one. Google mail (gmail) has less spam and is more protected from hacking than all other mail services.

Mail from Google

Of course, any email can be hacked if you guess the password. Therefore, I advise everyone to set complex or at least medium passwords, which should consist of letters and numbers, preferably in different cases (capital and small).

I learned about Google email relatively recently, about three years ago. At that time, I only used Mail.ru, which was enough for me. Mail actually has several disadvantages (for me personally, you may have more or none at all): a fairly high percentage of mailboxes being hacked and regular spam mailings.

I have not yet encountered such problems with Google mail and I hope that they will not arise in the near future.

Let's proceed directly to registering with Google and creating mail to Gmail .

Registration by mail

The first step is to turn on our computer. Go to any Internet browser that you are used to and often use (I have two of them - Google Chrom and Opera).

In the address bar you need to type the Google website - www.google.ru.


In the top tabs, select and go to Mail, which is located between News and Disk.


We will see the Gmail page. Google's approach to email.


In the lower right corner, you can select a language convenient for you, so that the registration procedure is clear to you and you do not need to use various translators.


On this page you can use two links Create an account and Create an account, which redirect to the same registration page.



We get into creating a Google account.



On the right is the registration form that we need to fill out.


This standard procedure, which shouldn't take much time. Fill in the column What is your name - first and last name.


In the next step, you need to come up with a username that ends in @gmail.com.


In the Create a password column, you need to write your password, which should be quite complex and consist of letters and numbers (you can use additional symbols) so that it does not get hacked.


In the next step we confirm our password (they must match).


Go to the Birthday column, fill in the day, month and year.


The next step is to select the gender; if you do not want to show it, you can select Not specified.


In the Mobile phone section you can write your number. You can use it if you forget your password; after a while an SMS will be sent with further instructions on how to restore it.


You can write a backup email in your backup email address. In case of suspicious activity your account will receive a corresponding notification.


Prove that you are not a robot by filling out the captcha and entering the two words shown in the picture.


If you don't see the symbols, you can refresh the picture and listen to what is shown on it. If you entered a mobile phone number, you can skip this check.


In the country column you need to select the one where you live. I live in Kazakhstan, so I chose Kazakhstan.


The next thing you need to do is check the box I accept the terms of the agreement and agree with Google's policies.


If you want to familiarize yourself with them, you can follow the two blue links.


You can also check the box if you want to see what your friends recommend using the computer and the Internet using the plus +1 button.

If you are a curious person and want to know why Google collects this information, you can find out by following this link.

If you have any difficulties or problems filling out the registration form, you can use the help.



Account Verification

After this we are taken to the Verify account page.


Next, you need to select your country and indicate your mobile phone number, if you did not indicate it when filling out above. Then you need to choose how to receive the code in the form of a regular SMS or a voice call and click continue.


A confirmation code should be sent to the specified mobile phone in a couple of minutes, maybe even earlier. If he does not come within 15 minutes, then you need to try again.


Mail setup

Your profile should then appear, where you can Add a photo or click Next.


A congratulations page appears with your email address and a blue button Go to the Gmail service.


We go to the Gmail service and a new mailbox opens in front of us, which we just created. In my case there was a Greeting and four incoming messages, yours may be different.


If you need to log into your new mail, you need to go to Google.ru or go to www.gmail.com and enter your username and password.


This is the procedure registration in google, namely, the creation of a mailbox on the Gmail service is completed. Inside the mail, you can customize everything for yourself, choose a design, set a background screensaver, get acquainted with Gmail and much more.

Let's sum it up

In today's article registration in google - mail to Gmail, we went through the entire process of registering a new mailbox from start to finish. I have several accounts on Gmail, as well as on Mail.ru.

Registration in Google - mail to Gmail

Perhaps you still have or have questions related to creating a mailbox on Gmail, you can ask them below in the comments to this article, and also use the form with me.

Thank you for reading me on

While working with my consultants, I came across a very interesting problem: many do not have their own e-mail address! Therefore, before you start your business on the Internet, you need to register your mail at gmail com.

Why Gmail.com?

Nowadays there are a huge number of email services and they all have their pros and cons. Of course, you can try each of these services and create mailboxes there, they will all come in handy later.

But to work on the Internet you need to immediately choose the best one. And the email is from Gmail. com is the best service. The main advantages of a Gmail mailbox:

Universal entrance. By registering your account in the service once, you receive a universal password that is suitable not only for your Gmail mailbox, but is also a password for everyone Google services.

This means that you don’t need to register anywhere else and remember a huge number of other logins and passwords. One universal key for all Google services. This is the most important advantage for working on the Internet.

Spam filters. Powerful anti-spam protection. This means that only the information you are waiting for will arrive in your inbox.

Large amount of space. When you register a mailbox, you are provided with a large amount of memory. This will last you a lifetime, even if you don't periodically clean out your email.

Availability 24 hours a day. Google technologies are constantly evolving and system failures are very rare.

Search. We remember that Gmail is part of the Google corporation, and Google is a powerful search engine. Finding a lost letter will not be difficult for anyone.

Grouping of letters. All messages in the mailbox are grouped into tabs and automatically sorted depending on the type of message.

Order in the mailbox. Features such as shortcuts, filters, notes and others help the user customize their email inbox and keep their mail in perfect order.

Communication. The service provides the opportunity to communicate via voice messages or video chat. Which is very convenient for work.

Safety. It is possible to set up two-level identification in Google, which increases the level of account protection.

This is a small part of the benefits of owning a mailbox on the Gmail service; in fact, there are many more of them, and all this is provided to the user completely free of charge.

Let's try to register mail on gmail.com together:

1. Write down your first and last name.

2. This is your email address, you can write any name here, but it’s better to use your own. For example, moninayuliana or monina75, the main thing is to make it easier and more convenient for you to remember your email address. Many people use it as an address Domain name blog... It's only your imagination.

Look also at the options that the system itself will offer.

3-4. Create a password and confirm it. Nowadays special attention is paid to passwords and you will have to choose a password so that it contains both letters and numbers. The main thing is that you remember it.

5. This field is required, so don't ignore it.

6. Choose your gender.

7. Register your mobile phone. You can leave it blank, but I recommend that you fill it out later when setting up your account in Google number The phone will still be useful.

8. The field is optional, but I filled it out and when I had to recover my password, this option helped me a lot. If this is your first mailbox, this field can be filled in later.

Next, enter the numbers indicated in the picture, select the country and check the box - I accept the Terms of Use... Press the forward button.

If all fields are filled out correctly, then you will be taken to the next tab.

Here you are asked to create your profile and upload a photo.

You don’t have to upload anything, but if you are going to build your business on the Internet, then I highly recommend uploading a photo. Why?

Firstly, we have already said that you need to promote yourself, which means people should know you by sight.

Secondly, we will register with the Gravatar service and link our email, and for this it is advisable to set your photo in your Google profile. Simply put, your photo will be your avatar.

Third, you see, it’s much more pleasant to communicate with a person when you see his face than a gray spot of a mystery man.

Next, click on the “Create Profile” button and go to the third tab with congratulations. Here you can already see your email address and all the services that are automatically available to you after creating your profile.

Gmail is a product from the world famous company Google. Officially in open access she got it back in 2004, and from that moment on, anyone could create an email on gmail com.

Few believed that the mail would be as it was presented in the press release. Doubts were fueled by the date of the announcement of the start of the first, after search engine, a big project from Google. The first of April after all. The fact that the global giant is going to provide a free mail service became known the day before the start. The New York Times wrote about this on March 31, 2004. It said that it would be possible to create mail absolutely free.

A distinctive feature of the innovative postal service was mailbox size. 1 gigabyte at that time seemed simply a fantastic figure. This was 500 times more than Hotmail's then existing competitor from another American giant, Microsoft. This is what made the news an April Fool's joke.

However, on April 1, Google presented a press release. But even this did not convince all journalists and users of the veracity of the news. The news was so revolutionary. But everything turned out to be true. Product instantly supplanted its competitors(Yahoo mail, Hotmail) from the market. It’s not surprising, because almost every active Internet user wanted to create an email on gmail com. With this product, Google created the Internet development trend for the coming years.

In addition, everyone who decided to create an email on gmail was provided with an innovative feature - search by mail. At that time, Google was the first to introduce such a function that was already familiar to us. But some ten years ago this was a real breakthrough.

The registration form that opens contains only the most necessary questions, which will not be difficult to answer. The corporation's specialists took care of new users and provided as clear tips as possible. The key thing to fill out is: unique login and personal password.

Since the email service has existed for more than ten years, coming up with a unique login will not be so easy. If the desired username is already taken, the system will offer you derivatives of the desired login, which are on this moment free. You can choose from the proposed options, or come up with a new variation.

Also, when registering, you will need indicate your mobile phone and backup email. Don't be afraid to provide this personal information. This is necessary, first of all, for the security of your mailbox. If you forget your password, you can easily restore it either to your phone or to an alternative mailbox.

Probably, each of us was once faced with the need to send an email, and this requires an electronic mailbox. This is a very convenient and useful thing, so this article will talk about how how to create a mailbox on one of the most popular and convenient services, that is, on Google (Google).

A few words about the advantages of Google mail:

Registering a mailbox on gmail

1) Go to the website to register

The first thing you need to do is open your browser and go to the site mail.google.com or gmail.com, for this you need. These two different addresses will lead you to the same page, so I prefer the second option, it is shorter. On the page that opens, look for this image:

We are interested in the big red “Create an account” button. Click and go to the page where you need to fill out registration information

2) Create a Google account

To register you will have to fill out a rather large form, but don’t worry, we’ll do everything together and carefully. If you need another language, then there is a switch at the top right.
First and Last Name— we indicate them here. It doesn’t have to be real, you can do it like this:

however, this is how letters will be automatically signed and how you will be contacted. Fill in further

Username(login) - this is exactly what will appear before the @ sign in the email address, for example, if it is a computer, then the address will be [email protected]
Username requirements:

  • length from 6 to 30 characters
  • The only symbols you can use are letters of the Latin alphabet (a-z), numbers (0-9) and periods (.), spaces are not allowed. Latin letters can be used both lowercase and uppercase - they are perceived equally
  • such a username should not exist, so it is not necessary to assume that computer, for example, is still free. But let's check and at the same time see how Google will offer other name options if the one entered is already taken. For example, I’ll enter shabananton. Click the “check if the name is taken” button and see the following


of course it’s busy (it’s easy to guess by whom) and Google offers to choose one of the options with added numbers. This, of course, is not very pretty, so I advise you to experiment some more, use a period and get a great name as soon as possible! For example like this:


If it’s available, then you can move on!

Enter your password— you need to come up with a password for mail. This is an important part of registering on any site, so take this procedure seriously, especially if the mailbox will be used for business correspondence or receiving correspondence.

Tips for choosing a password:

  • in this case it must be at least 8 characters
  • spaces are not allowed
  • use only letters , and preferably both lowercase and uppercase, here they differ, unlike the username
  • use numbers Special symbols(at least an underscore _ or a hyphen -)
  • do not use the same password on other sites, because if someone can find it out (the mailbox is already easy to find out), the consequences will be dire
  • do not use as a password your date of birth, last name, telephone number or any other information that can be easily obtained (from your page on social network, For example)
  • You can use the online password guessing service www.genpas.ru, if there is something wrong with your imagination

  • the question should not be related to the password
  • The answer should come easily to your mind, but it should be difficult to guess. In general, be non-obvious

For example like this:

Next you need to indicate the country, it should be determined automatically, as well as your date of birth. Be careful with your date of birth, because if you are younger 13 years(that is, if you indicate so), then registration will be denied. Why?

Google is registered in the USA. And in the USA there is a law to protect children. Which states that data cannot be collected from children under 13 years of age. Including registration for accounts. That's it

After the age comes the hated captcha - a picture from which you need to enter symbols. This is a kind of protection against automatic registrations.

Letter case is not taken into account. Also in the middle there is a pictogram for people with disabilities, by clicking on which the information must be perceived not visually, but auditorily. That is, noise will be heard, against the background of which a voice (in the language of the page, that is, in this example, in Russian) will pronounce numbers. They need to be introduced. If you cannot read what is written, click the leftmost icon - the text will be updated.

Then you need to press the button

The following welcome page will open, where you can log into the created mailbox.

Currently any user world wide web can get yourself an email account, because it’s very easy to do. It’s a completely different matter which resource to choose for this. Most Russians use services from or, but foreign users are increasingly registering on Gmail.com. For those who are not in the know, this is an email service owned by the most famous search engine in the world, Google.

It is worth noting that mail from Gmail is very convenient and well thought out. However, in our opinion, the greatest beauty of this service is that there is a so-called two-step identification, which allows you to link your email account to mobile phone. Therefore, no one except you will be able to read your letters, since in order to enter your mailbox, you must first enter the code received on your cell phone. For those who keep valuable information in their mail, this is a very important service.

Free mailbox registration

Now let's move on to registration. Go to the gmail.com link and click “Create an account.” It looks either like this:

Or like this:

What is your name. It is not difficult to guess that here you must indicate your first and last name. Whether they should be real or fictitious is up to you to decide, but we believe that it is better to indicate real data, as this is not only more convenient for your interlocutors, but will also help restore mail in the event of loss of access to it.

Create a username. You will have to come up with a nickname () that you will use to log in to the mail. It's worth noting that most "simple" logins are already taken by users, so you'll probably have to come up with something special. We hope there will be no problems with this.

Create a password. The password must be complex. Don’t even think about using simple ones like qwerty or 123456 - attackers pick them up very quickly. You can create a complex password in this way: take a Russian word, for example, “Mowgli”. Write it in English and it will become Vfeukb. Amazing. Now add some numbers and symbols here, something like this: %?Vfeukb1975. We received a 12-character password, which is very difficult to guess. And if you use double authorization, it will simply be impossible to get into your mailbox.

Confirm the password. Re-enter the password specified above in the field.

Date of birth, gender. Whether this information is worth providing is up to you to decide.

Mobile phone. At this stage, it is not necessary to add a cell number.

Alternate email address. If you have another mailbox, you can specify it. In case of loss of access, all necessary information will be sent to it.

Prove that you are not a robot. It’s easy to prove this - you just need to enter a captcha, which, however, is not so simple. However, after a couple of attempts, you will probably be able to enter incomprehensible characters.

A country. Here you need to indicate your country of residence, although it is usually automatically set for your region.

NECESSARILY Please check the box next to “I accept the Terms of Use...”, since without this it is impossible to continue registration.

After filling in all the information, click on the “Next” button. Congratulations, registration is completed!

The next step will ask you to add your photo, but you can choose not to do this if you wish.

In order to access your mail, at the top of the Google page, click on the icon in the form of dots, and then select the mail service.

Double authorization

And now we get to the most interesting part. Now we will tell you how to enable double authorization so that no one can get into your mailbox except you, of course.

On the right side of the screen you can see your avatar. Click on it and select the “My Account” section from the drop-down menu.

Enter your phone number and follow the instructions.

Finally, I would like to remind you that it is highly advisable to use only the one registered in your name as a telephone number. If you lose this phone, you are unlikely to be able to regain access to your account. Be careful!
