Email gmail. Google (Google) mail - login (registration). How to enter Jimail mail on "My page"

If you access Gmail through search engines, you may lose access to your inbox. When a user goes to sites from a search, he runs the risk of getting to phishing (fishing - fishing) sites. These sites are visually indistinguishable from mail services and were created for the sole purpose of finding out the username and password from the victim's account and gaining access to his mail.

By going to a similar site, you will see a familiar interface and, without suspecting a trick, enter the data from the account into the fields of the authorization form (login form). After entering, you will see a notification - "the service is temporarily not available, try again" and you will be redirected to the official website mail.google.com, where, when you re-enter data, you will already successfully enter your Mailbox. Unfortunately, Internet scammers have already received your username and password, the first time you try to log in to the "fake" site.

With access to your Gmail mail, an attacker can use the password recovery functions from social networks, cloud storage, and even find your credit card information.

Registering a new Google Mail mailbox

Google mail has a number of advantages over other email services. For Gmail mailbox owners, all online services and Google's tools, the so-called all-in-one (all in one).

It will take about 5 minutes to register in Google mail and a minimum set of data: First name, Last name, come up with your unique login (the name of the mailbox of the form [email protected]) and a password convenient for you (8 characters: letters, numbers and special characters). For additional security, you will be asked to link a phone number and an additional email address.

Login to Gmail email

It is best to enter your mailbox from Google mail from the start pages that are in any browser. If you are unable to access start page or you need to log in to Gmail on someone else's computer, the best solution is to use the "Incognito" mode in the browser (accessed by the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + N). In this mode, your authorization is not saved and when you close the browser window, access to Google mail will be interrupted.

The second correct solution for logging into Gmail

To log into your Gmail or Google account, you must enter the authorization data that was specified during registration: Phone number (if it was specified and confirmed) or login from your mailing address.

Since Google is hugely popular, getting the desired name for an email address is quite problematic. Keep in mind that you can use dots when creating it.

IMPORTANT! Before proceeding with the registration instructions, I think I should give you such useful information. Do not confuse the Gmail.com service with Gmail.ru. The latter has nothing to do with Google. Gmail.ru is a paid email service.

8. Gmail.com mail inbox - how to set it up?

It should be noted here that the mail from Google has one of the best spam cutters in the world, while other mail services do not fight spam at all.

Further, if all letters fall into one Inbox folder, then you will very soon accumulate thousands of unread letters. Therefore, it is better to set up automatic sorting of letters. In particular, I am annoyed by mailing lists that you can't unsubscribe from. So, you can make settings for sending them to a separate folder (create a shortcut for it) with simultaneous deletion.

Set up automatic sorting of incoming emails in Gmail in a very solid way using this helpful video:


So, you now know how to create a gmail.com mail, how to set up a secure login and protect your mail from being hacked, how to perform basic mail settings, including the very important automatic sorting of incoming mail.

Write your questions in the comments.

Hello, dear readers of the blog site. Any activity on the Internet requires the presence of certain modern means of communication. Among them, email is far from the last place, including the free mail service GMail, which most of the netizens rightly consider the best.

Among the fat pluses of Jimail, of course, are the means of combating it that are in its functionality. It is thanks to this circumstance that all my correspondence, for example, with, Yahoo Mail, Mile.ru and other places, it flocks here.

Another important advantage that Google email has is a high level of security, including a secure protocol, two-step authentication with a choice of confirmation method, a set of reliable tools for recovering lost access to an email box, and other similar features.

There is another important aspect, namely competitiveness, which directly affects the choice of users. So, in the global market, Google Mail goes almost head to head with another famous brand Outlook (formerly Hotmail), but in Runet it is in serious competition, which also has a number of advantages.

If you mark the main functionality, then in Google Mail you can import contacts from third party services, sort correspondence by the most different ways, label messages with labels, send them on a schedule, apply various actions to incoming and other messages, use Hangouts chats, and perform a bunch of other useful operations.

Of course, nothing is perfect in the world. It is possible that Jimail has significant disadvantages, but they are obvious, rather, for advanced users who use the functionality to the maximum, activating such chips that ordinary users have no idea about.

But I suppose not to get into the wilds too much, and therefore only small flaws are visible, which "do not affect the speed." However, this is pure subjectivism, which you can easily dilute with "collective objective" in the comments (you are welcome).

Registering and creating a Gmail mailbox

So, before you get at your disposal all the functionality of free mail from Google, you need to register an account and create your email box. Probably, for beginners, it should be said that by registering for free in Mail, you simultaneously get access to the rest of Google services, similar to that.

I recommend to start with to the GMail introduction page, where you have the opportunity to briefly explore the main benefits offered by the service. From here you can also log into your account, and therefore into your mailbox (if you already have one).

In addition, here is a link to a special web page for creating corporate mail for business(I note that this pleasure is paid, as you get additional specialized tools) if you feel the need to create it:


Well, if you do not yet have your e-mail, but passionately want to get it, and for free, in the standard version, then you need to click on the button "Create an account", after which you will be redirected to the registration page (https://accounts.google.com/SignUp) account Google where you need to fill out a standard form:


True, it is often quite difficult to come up with a nice username, which in the future will serve as a login for logging into all Google services, as well as the first integral part email addresses (the second part "@gmail.com" is the same for everyone), since this service is super popular, which means that many options are already taken.

However, imagination even in these conditions can suggest a completely acceptable option. In the end, you can always use as a username, for example, Domain name your site, if, of course, you have one.

Separately, it must be said about the importance of using a complex password, as this is one of the most important points in protecting your account from outside attacks. Of course, the security of the GMail service is at a high level (we'll talk about this later), but why give attackers an extra chance.

Many users create a password to make it easier to remember, and include simple combinations using their date of birth, name, and so on. This is fundamentally wrong and can lead to your account being hacked by third parties. Therefore, always use passwords of increased complexity, but use high-quality third-party software to store them. For my part, I can recommend, which can not only store and generate passwords, but also automatically fill out site authorization forms.

During the registration process, at one of the steps you will be asked to provide a phone number and a backup email address (this is necessary in order to enhance security and restore access to the email in case it is lost). True, this is not necessary at this stage (therefore, you can easily create mail without a phone number by simply skipping this step), since you can perform the same actions at any time in your account settings if the need arises.

However, if you still decide to do this immediately, then enter the mobile phone number and click "Send". Next, wait for an SMS in which a six-digit verification code will come, which should be entered in the appropriate box and use the "Confirm" button:


Next, you will be asked to determine when the system should use your mobile phone number. You can immediately mark the desired item or do nothing for now if you decide to add these settings later. If you remember that you missed some information or you need to make certain changes to the registration form, you can use the "Back" button. Otherwise, click "Finish":


Then, by ticking the appropriate checkboxes, you agree to the terms of use of the Google mail service and the processing of personal data, and using the "Create an account" button, you are transferred to a freshly created account, where an electronic guide awaits you, which will give you the simplest tips on getting started.

From the same Google Mail start page, you can download applications (from Google Play and App Store) for all mobile devices, working on Android and iOS. So you get an excellent opportunity to access work with your mail anytime and anywhere.

How to enter Jimail mail on "My page"

You can log into your email inbox (by analogy with other large services, your account in this case can be associated with terms such as “My page” or “personal account”) after registration, you can from the web page of any Google service, since the created account will be common to all of them. To do this, select the appropriate icon from the drop-down menu in the upper right corner:

Implement google mail login you can every time you go to this link. However, there is an important nuance here. If, then you will be taken to the already mentioned GMail page and after clicking on the “Login” button there, you will be redirected to a web page with an authorization form, in which you need to enter your login and password in sequence:

Google provides users with the ability to easily log into their email box. Therefore, if you have already login and logout, but the cache was not cleared after that, you will immediately be taken to a page with an already filled email (login):


From here, you can enter your password and log into your account. But there is an alternative. The fact is that Google, as, by the way, Yandex, does not limit the number of created accounts. Therefore, when you click on the bird in the login field, you will be taken to the account change window:


After clicking on the appropriate link, you will see a standard authorization window for logging into another GMail account (if you already have one). If you want to register a new mailbox from there, then this can be done without problems.

How to Log into Multiple Google Mail Mailboxes at Once

Now let's see how Google makes it easy to switch to any mail account, while maintaining possibility of multiple entry into multiple boxes at once simultaneous operation with them, while allowing you to significantly save time and not make unnecessary gestures.

Congenial, isn't it? So, let's say you have registered two or more Jimail accounts for different purposes, but they have this moment are not authorized, and the browser cache is not cleared. Then if you click on the link:

https://mail.google.com/

You will be redirected to a page with a list of all your email addresses:


You can select any mailbox by clicking on its login and log in by entering the appropriate password. But that's not all. As I said, you can log into several mail accounts at once directly from the account in which you are currently logged in. You can do this from the upper right corner of the interface by clicking on the avatar:

like this in a simple way you can open as many different email accounts as you like and move freely between them, because each time they open in a new tab by default. This is definitely one of the exclusive features of the Google Mail service.

"My Page" interface and initial settings

During the login process, the system boots by default full google version Mail, but if the Internet connection is not strong enough, the interface can be provided in a light HTML version. If necessary, you yourself can switch to the HTML version (another plus in the piggy bank of this mail service, you will find many more such pluses in the text of the publication):


When you visit your account ("My Page") for the first time, you will find a message from the GMail team, which gives the most necessary recommendations to increase the security of your account, a suggestion for installing mobile applications mail for Android and iOS, as well as useful links to the thematic Forum and the help page.

In addition, in the foreground you will see icons with which you can easily and quickly perform the necessary actions, including the initial setup of the mailbox (and, again, a portion of water for the Jimail mill). The interface itself looks like this:


If you have created an account for correspondence at a serious level, then to identify you, you can first upload a photo or profile picture(although in any case it will be useful, because people are reluctant to communicate with impersonal persons).

To do this, click on the default icon in the upper right corner of the interface and upload a suitable image from your computer (this can be done by simply dragging an image file into the upload area that will appear after clicking on the icon):

Choosing the interface type and design theme


Interface view installed from the three options presented here. For me, the default option is the most optimal, but everyone can have their own opinion on this subject based on their own ideas about convenience and personal preferences:


Topic selection seems to me a matter even more subjective. But there is also a choice:


If you don’t like anything in this collection, you can click on the “My Photos” button and choose one of your images located on the Google Photos service, which you can pre-upload there, as your theme.

For those who, in addition to my author's exercises, want to see the instructions for setting up a Google mail account in video format, I present an informative video demonstrating 15 useful bells and whistles available in the functionality of the service:

");">

Well, for everyone, I will allow myself to continue the story, during which I will draw your attention to some more secret chips that are not in this video review.

Security of work in the GMail account

The security features provided by the system are impressive, so as a first step after registration, be sure to take the time to properly protect your mail, this will help you avoid a lot of trouble in the future.

All these settings (including two-factor authentication to log into your account), which are carried out on security page, I described in detail in the publication about, so it makes no sense to repeat.

In addition to the option to confirm the entrance to GMail (and, therefore, to all other Google services) using a mobile phone, here you can change the password if necessary, specify a backup email address, block access for unverified and untrusted applications, and also take other actions to increase the level the security of your account.

Perhaps I will point out one more important detail in terms of security, since it is directly related to the mailbox interface. This is a link "Additional Information", located at the very bottom right, after clicking on which the following window will open:

If necessary, you can end sessions opened for this account on all devices by clicking on the appropriate button, if this situation is the case (this will be another broad step towards improving security).

In the plate present here, you can see the latest actions taken on this account, indicating the location ().

If, when studying this information, you marked some unfamiliar device (for example, instead of the browser from which you log in, another application will appear) or IP, then this is already a reason to worry, as a result, immediately change the password for fidelity, and even then carefully study the recommendations from the Jimail account protection service.

How to set up your email in Gmail service

Next, let's move on to the basic settings that will help optimize your Google Mail account to the maximum, taking into account all the features of your activities on the Internet. Let's start by putting things in order in the mailbox and organizing its contents.

Labels (folders) in Google mail

For the orderly distribution of correspondence in the system, there are labels that essentially act as folders where letters are placed, depending on the nature of their content and purpose. Let's dwell on this in more detail.

Here exist system shortcuts(“Inbox”, “Started”, “Deferred”, “Important”, “Sent”, “Draft”), various categories(“Social networks”, “Alerts”, “Forums”, “Promotions”), as well as simply labels(“Personal”, “Travel”, “Work”, “Accounts”). Their names speak for themselves. In my opinion, the developers have provided for almost all the necessary parameters by which you can distribute the correspondence of a standard user.

If you open the corresponding tab in the settings ( Gear symbol - Settings), then you can set the set of shortcuts you need, which will be shown in the active list of the left column. For some of them, you can configure their display when one or another specific condition is met (“yes, if there are unread”):


If desired, some shortcuts can be deactivated, in which case they will simply be hidden in the drop-down menu "More", whose name is converted to "collapse" when it opens:


I have already said that Google Mail provides shortcuts for all occasions, but if you want to contribute to the systematization of correspondence, you can create your own, edit existing standard shortcuts, or delete them altogether (however, it should be noted that system shortcuts and categories are not subject to deletion, as well as change):


When editing or adding your label, you can perform almost the same actions: enter its name and select a parent element for it. I will give a clear example. Let's say you set up a mailbox in Google Mail, including for business correspondence. Then you can create an appropriate section and put subsections in it:

Shortcuts created in this way will appear in the list of others on the left side of the interface. But this is far from all the actions that can be applied to them. For example, if you move the cursor to the name of any custom label and click on the button with three dots that appears, call context menu, you can, for example, add color to the adjacent labels(as well as other operations):


You can color-code certain incoming messages yourself by simply dragging and dropping them from the left menu:


This is how you can scatter all existing mail correspondence on pre-created user and system labels, providing each of them with the necessary label, which will provide you with maximum order in your mail account. In the future, the system will automatically determine the corresponding threads of letters related to the same topic and place them in those folders that satisfy the criteria you have selected in the form of labels.

Setting up your inbox

Now let's try to consider the options for the main folder of any mail service, which in most cases contains a list of all received letters. To do this, go to the settings again through the drop-down gear menu:

Almost everything is clear here, I will only briefly present the options here and dwell in more detail on some of the nuances that may raise questions from beginners:

1. "Inbox folder type"- this is the distribution of letters in order from top to bottom (first important, unread, marked, priority). By default, the mode is in effect, in which all messages follow the time (new ones first). Naturally, in the vast majority of cases, this suits the standard user quite well. If you have any reasons of your own, you can choose the option that suits you from the drop-down list.

2. "Categories"- you can set the sections that will be present in the "Inbox", since all correspondence based on the analysis of Google Mail can be sorted into five categories ("Unsorted", "Social networks", "Alerts", "Forums", "Promotions"), which , again, important from the point of view of systematization, but three of them are displayed by default:


If you wish, you can reduce or increase the number of categories (sections) displayed in the Inbox folder by checking / unchecking the boxes next to the ones you need.

3. "Markers of Importance"- the Google Mail system analyzes incoming messages and, in determining their importance, takes into account your actions and other parameters. If the letter meets the required criteria, then it is automatically marked with this marker (I think it would be wise to leave this option enabled in the settings):


4. Filters- I hope to convince you of the importance of applying filtering a little lower, so I recommend not to ignore this part of the functionality, which is activated by default (see the third screenshot above from here).

This part of the post has come to an end. I hope that you have learned useful information from it. A little lower we will continue the conversation about noteworthy chips.

How to Import Mail and Contacts to GMail

Google Mail has such a wide range of functionality that it seems to me that there is a place in it to solve any problem. Therefore, the idea of ​​moving to this wonderful service with all the established contacts and mail correspondence seems to be very, very successful.

You can import contact information and available mail from your mailboxes (including those located on third-party services) from the same settings in the tab "Accounts and Import":


Import mail and contacts possible from a huge number of postal services. To activate the operation, click the appropriate link, as a result of which a message box will appear, in which you will be asked to specify the e-mail of the mailbox from which you are going to import mail, and then enter the password from it. In the next step, you will need to clarify the components of the transfer:


It should be noted that this operation will make it possible to transfer all letters collected at the moment, but will not allow receiving correspondence from there in the future. Therefore, it is recommended to check the option that activates the import of new messages for the next 30 days after the transfer (however, by default, there is already a check mark there). This step will help to inform the people with whom you are in contact about the upcoming move in a timely manner. Very far-sighted.

By clicking the "Start Import" button, you start the process. A sign will appear with a notification that this operation can take up to two days, so you will have to be patient. However, in no way should you sit at your computer and wait for it to finish. Even if you log out, the operation will continue in background. You can find out about the import status at any time by going to the same tab "Settings" - "Accounts and Import".

Collect emails from other mailboxes and send messages via GMail

Above, we discussed how you can import all previously accumulated correspondence, along with contact information, into your GMail account. But we will go further and analyze how almost all possible options for working with correspondence can be implemented in Google Mail.

Let's set up an account in such a way that it collects all letters received by other mailboxes. Moreover, these can be addresses of Google Mail, third-party mail services (Yandex, Yahoo, etc.. But not only the collection of letters is possible. During the setup, you can also organize the sending of messages from these email boxes via GMail. You can implement a similar trick from the same settings tabs by adding new mail accounts by clicking on the link of the same name:


After that, in the pop-up window, enter the email from which you want to receive correspondence to your mailbox in GMail. Click "Next" and in the next step make a choice: either directly use the import of incoming letters, or use the wonderful function Gmailify, with which you can link the added email and your mail.

Perhaps Gmailify will be the best solution, since not only will all your emails be collected in one place, but all the power of the functionality will be used to the maximum both in relation to the Google Mail account and the additional email account.

True, there is one nuance here. The fact is that Gmailify is not available for all mail services (if you use Yahoo, AOL, Outlook, Hotmail and some others, then there will be no problems). When testing, I was surprised to find that mail from Yandex is included in the circle of the elite, but, alas, this option is not intended for Rambler Mail:


I will continue, perhaps, the example with Rambler mail, since we may return to Gmailify more than once, but it will not hurt to disassemble the standard configuration option. So, since in this case there is no other option other than direct import, it remains to proceed to the next step by clicking the "Next" button, where you need to enter the password from third party mail and enable the desired settings by checking the boxes:


In the screenshot above, everything is described in detail. In theory, in the standard version, all the options offered are important and useful ( backup, using a secure connection, a separate shortcut and archiving). However, everyone has their own reasons.

In the next step, you will be notified that the account has been added and you can start collecting correspondence from it right in your Google Mail inbox. On this, you can finish the operation and further configure more and more sending letters from the same email via Jimail already from the settings. But we will do it right away by marking the appropriate item:


At the next step, you can enter any name that will be associated with the added postal address and appear along with it in the "From" field of the letter received by the recipient, as well as activate some more interesting functionality options:


For example, you can specify absolutely any email address ( it will be present in the "Reply" field message sent from your main Google Mail box and received by the addressee), which will receive a response from the recipient, if one is sent.

Now it is important to understand this. If you carefully examined the screenshot above, you noticed the checkbox opposite the option "Use as alias". The fact is that the final result of its application depends on whether it is filled or not (whether a checkmark is ticked, or, in other words, a checkbox), and this is how:


Here we need to make some clarifications. When using an additional address as an alias, a letter sent to this email from a third-party user will go to the Inbox of the main mailbox (as well as to a folder specially created for this), but only if google settings Mail archiving not enabled. Otherwise, the message will only be placed in a special folder (see the 4th screenshot above).

Above, I tried to explain everything clearly, but I feel that it will not be easy for everyone to immediately comprehend this information to the maximum extent. Therefore, as a bonus, I offer you a link to google help on alias usage .

But let's continue the steps for setting up sending letters from an additional email (the previous step is shown in the second screenshot from here up). In the next step, the system will ask you to confirm this email address. To do this, you need to enter the newly added mailbox and follow the confirmation link contained in the letter that came from Google, or enter the code located there in a special box (screenshot below):


After confirmation in the same settings tab, you will have the opportunity to determine the fate of your own correspondence associated with the main mailbox (where you will carry out the actions described above). Moreover, it doesn’t matter what options you used and what mailing address you specified as an additional one during the initial steps, the whole thing can be edited up to the complete removal of the settings made:


By specifying an additional mask your primary email address, as a result of which the person who received the letter will not even suspect that the sending was actually initiated from another email. You can select the sender address from the drop-down list "From" fields, which will appear every time you write a letter:


Remember, when describing the process of adding an additional mail account, I paid attention to the creation of a special shortcut for viewing messages coming to a third-party email? At the end of the operation, this shortcut (folder), which can be highlighted in a different color (read above about setting shortcuts), will appear among others:


So, the main thing is that it became possible to both send messages from an additional email using your main Google Mail address, and view the correspondence that comes to it. If you have several mailboxes on other third-party services, then you can add them at any time to send and / or receive messages through the main Google Mail account. To do this, you just need to use the appropriate links (3rd screenshot up).

Is it true, automatic check letters arriving at the added email address are generated at certain intervals. This can also be done manually at any time by clicking on the link "Check mail"(the same third screenshot from here upwards).

If this does not create any particular inconvenience for you, then you can leave everything like that. However, if it is important to instantly download letters received to the added mailbox to the base email, then you can set up forwarding in the account that you added to collect mail.

Forwarding messages from other accounts, setting up POP / IMAP for mail clients and account access rights

If you set up another Google mailbox as an additional one, then you need to go to this account and in the same settings in the tab Forwarding and POP/IMAP add a forwarding address using the button of the same name:


As a result, a message will be sent to the email box where all mail will be sent, containing a link to confirm the email, which you need to follow.

If you need to speed up the receipt of letters from emails of third-party services (Yandex Mail, Rambler Mail, Mail.ru, Yahoo Mail and others), then it is in the accounts of these mail services that you should set up forwarding to GMail. The process of verifying email addresses will be mostly similar (following the link in the letter sent to the specified Google email).

By the way, in that tab you can enable and disable the POP and / or IMAP protocols, if you wish to organize access to correspondence through mail clients(there are also links to instructions for setting them up):


And now let's return to the previous tab "Account and Import", where the possibility of granting access to the account to third parties with limited rights has not been considered:


The added user will be able to read correspondence and send replies to letters, but will not be able to edit settings, change the password, and perform other similar actions. In general, here we put Dzhimaila credit.

Filtering emails in google mail service

We continue to consider tools that will help to conveniently structure correspondence. One such tool in Google Mail are filters, accessible again from the settings, hidden behind the magic gear icon, where they are located on the corresponding tab. Here are already existing filters (if you created them earlier), as well as tools for exporting and importing them. But we are primarily interested in the possibility of creating a new filter:


When creating it, you need to think over the algorithm by which the system will properly filter your correspondence. After clicking on the activation link "Create new filter»The following window will open, where you will need to fill in the required fields, in which it is necessary to note the characteristic details that determine the filtering of this kind of letters:


You can check the effectiveness of the configured filter on the go by performing a test search for messages according to the specified parameters. If the testing does not satisfy you, you can immediately make the necessary changes. After the intermediate result suits you, proceed to the next step by clicking on the "Create Filter" button.

At this stage, you need to determine where incoming messages that match the specified Gmail filter will be placed, as well as the accompanying actions associated with it:


In the screenshot, as an example, I have activated several options with checkmarks. How they work, I will show clearly below, but first you need to explain the purpose of all the available items:

1. "Skip Inbox (Archive)"- when this option is activated, you can successfully avoid an overabundance of letters in the corresponding Inbox folder.

2. "Mark as read"- if you enable this option, then the messages will not be highlighted in bold, as it happens by default with all unread messages.

3. "Mark"- if you look at the list of letters, then on the left of each of them there is an image of an asterisk. If you click on it, it will turn orange. So you can mark any message manually. So, if you configure this option, then all mail matching the specified filter will be automatically marked like this:


If the standard symbol is not enough for you, in the same settings in the "Stars" subsection of the "General" tab you can find a whole range of icons, and from them you can assemble an arbitrarily rich set for use:


Just do not forget to save the changes after the settings are completed by pressing the button of the same name at the bottom of the page. As a result, you can select the desired symbol from the current set for marking letters by clicking the left mouse button on the icon present there:


4. Apply Shortcut- in other words, set up the filtered letters to get into the desired folder. Only you will have to choose exclusively from simple shortcuts (not system ones) created by you or provided by Google.

5. Forward- the GMail mail service is able to redirect incoming letters to a different email address that you specify, as well as receive messages sent to any other email address (however, details about the nuances of mail forwarding will follow).

6. Delete. It is logical to turn on this option if you want to put an end to the mailing lists that bother you, from which you sometimes cannot unsubscribe, once and for all. Set up a filter with deletion, and bam - hateful messages go straight to the trash. Of course, the Jimail spam cutter works almost flawlessly, but, as they say, there is a hole in the old woman.

7. Never spam- if you fill in the checkbox next to this option, then letters filtered in this way will never end up in the "SPAM" folder. Since the filtering is compiled by the account owner on the basis of several signs at once, in many cases ticking this item will not be superfluous.

8. Always mark as important- as noted in the chapter on setting up the Inbox folder, the system, based on the multiple factors that it analyzes, is able to automatically sort incoming correspondence, including highlighting important ones. By checking this item, you indicate in advance the importance of letters that fall under this particular filter.

9. Never flag as important- the setting is the reverse of the previous one.


11. Apply filter to matching email threads: 0- filtering will apply to messages that have already been received and fall under these settings (the number after the colon just indicates their number).

This completes the setup of the filtering process. Next, test the filter for its effectiveness, adjust if necessary and use to its fullest.

What other useful options can be implemented in Google Mail

Let's take a look at those settings tabs behind the gear icon, which I haven't touched on in my post yet. Most of them do not require a detailed description and are not used by everyone (), so I will list them only briefly:

  • "Additions"- makes it possible by ticking the box to allow the installation of modules that will expand the already huge functionality of GMail;
  • "Chat"- here are the radio buttons for turning on / off the chat (if suddenly someone does not know this tricky term, then this is a form of user communication in the form of messaging), which is in the active state by default in the lower left corner;
  • "Offline"- activation of a very useful function that allows you to use GMail even when there is no Internet connection ();
  • "Themes"- here you can choose the appropriate design for the interface of your mailbox and change it at any time.

For more details, it is probably worth stopping at the tab "Advanced", where you can get a lot of useful chips, some of them are also enjoyed by your obedient servant:

I will note those that suit most users (again, in my humble opinion):

Unread messages icon. When this option is enabled, in the tab where Google Mail is open, a number will appear showing the number of letters that you have not had time to read yet. It seems to be a trifle, but the benefits are obvious:

View area. Another feature, however, has lost its uniqueness (a similar function works, for example, in Yandex mail), but this has not become less significant.

The bottom line is that after activating it, a new button will appear in the upper right corner, with which the entire window can be divided horizontally or vertically. If you select the vertical view mode, then on the left you will see a list of all messages, and on the right you can see the content of any selected message. Extremely Convenient:


Custom keyboard shortcuts . If you enable this function, a separate tab will appear in the list of settings, where it will be possible to set hot keys to speed up frequently performed actions (the current combinations that can be changed are indicated):


Response Templates. Just a great opportunity to save time for those who often respond to the same type of messages. From my own experience, I can say that this is very annoying, even if the mailbox contains correspondence on the desired topic, from which you can copy the text. Copying is also not the best option, especially if you have to do it often.

So, activate this function from the settings, and then open the window for writing a letter by clicking on the button with a plus in the upper left corner, located directly above the list of folders. Specify a topic that will serve as the name of the future template, and of course, do not forget to enter the content. After that, in the drop-down bottom menu, hiding behind a cryptogram with three dots, select the item "Response Templates" - "Save as a new template":


And in the next step, enter a name so that in the future it will be easy to identify the saved templates, especially if there are several of them. If you need to reply to a letter in which a topic that has already been raised, call up the same menu by clicking on a familiar symbol that will also be present in the form of a response to a message, and simply select the desired one from the list of saved templates:


After clicking on the template name, its contents will automatically be inserted into the text of the letter. Naturally, before sending a message, you can always correct its content, if the situation requires it.

Probably, but I will focus only on the chips that require additional clarification or on those that I have so far ignored in today's publication. So:

"Cancel Send"- sometimes a situation arises when, after sending a letter, you suddenly suddenly remembered that you forgot to indicate something important or attach desired file. With this setting, you can specify the time limit when it is possible to cancel sending a message (the maximum value is 30 seconds):


"Dynamic Content"- this option is enabled by default and provides the ability to perform certain actions after receiving a letter containing dynamic components, such as filling out questionnaires, responding to comments, etc.


"Smart Input". This chip is one of the most extravagant. Probably, at the moment it is a complete exclusive. Judge for yourself:


In the active state, this function initiates the automatic substitution of phrases and expressions as you enter text, which can significantly speed up the writing of a message. Unfortunately, this option is currently only available for speakers of English and several Romance languages ​​(Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and French). The Russian language is not yet among the privileged ones, but I am sure that everything is ahead.

"Experimental Access"- GMail developers work tirelessly and constantly introduce some innovative things (this is also why Google Mail is so popular). This setting item will allow you to join the latest developments and personally participate in testing certain features with which you plan to expand the functionality.


If you decide to turn on access, then the test features will be added to the settings (this may not happen immediately) and marked with a flask icon (take a look at the screenshot above). At any time, they can be turned off one by one or all together.

"Signature"- it is impossible not to mention such an important component that can save you from routine work. Compose the end of the letter, which will be automatically inserted into each message you send:


If you remember, GMail allows you to create an unlimited number of mail accounts. Therefore, if for each case you allocate a separate box (for business correspondence, for communication with relatives, etc.), then in each case you can create a separate signature suitable for this particular circle of communication.

"Auto Answer"- if you are unavailable for a certain time and will not be able to respond to incoming messages on time, you can configure this function by entering the start date of the autoresponder, as well as the subject name and text of the content of the response letter:


As a result, a message with an auto-reply subject will be displayed at the top of the interface. If you specify an expiration date for the autoresponder, it will turn itself off when it expires. Otherwise, to deactivate it, you will need to click on "Finish".

In addition to the functions that I mentioned just above, here you can configure the interface language, including input methods, enable notifications from Google Mail on the desktop, and also activate keyboard shortcuts, icons of personal letters (as a result, incoming messages addressed to you personally and mailing letters sent to several addresses at once are marked in a special way).

There is a lot of functionality, but I still recommend choosing a moment and adjusting all the functionality of Google Mail to your Wishlist. By doing this, you systematize your work with correspondence, as a result of which you will not only gain much-needed comfort, but also save precious time.

Some secrets when working with correspondence

It remains for us to figure out what interesting options are present directly when working with mail and how convenient everything is arranged here. Well, some of the gadgets have already been appreciated by us in the course of the story, as they are closely related to the settings and other options.

Let's see what the interface looks like again personal account jimail on home page, where the list of incoming messages is located. At the very top is search string, which can be used to message search by a wide variety of parameters (topic name, postal addresses, content, volume of letters, etc.):


In order to use the search functionality, you need to click on the triangle on the right side of the line, as a result of which a table with filters will appear, in which you should set up the filtering of the necessary correspondence (search and filters have already been mentioned above).

Let me remind you that above the list of letters, by default, the names of the three main categories are located, according to which incoming correspondence is sorted (“Unsorted”, “Social Networks”, and also “Promotions”), which is logical, since messages of precisely such directions make up these days the bulk of the average user's inbox.

I remind you that you can change this disposition at any time from the already familiar settings in the “Inbox” tab, deleting an unnecessary category, in your opinion, or, conversely, adding the one you need from the list (“Alerts”, “Forums”).

For any action on letters, you need to tick (fill in the corresponding checkbox) in front of one or more messages, and here everything is implemented so that the user makes a minimum of gestures: it is possible to select one message, all at once, or a group (read, unread, marked, unmarked):


After selecting at least one letter from the list, a set of tools will appear on top, with which you can perform, it seems, all possible operations:


In the screenshot above, all the tools (by the way, the default icons symbolizing them can be replaced with text from the settings in the “General” tab) are numbered, but those that do not fit in the top panel are also present in the drop-down list, which is called by clicking on the cryptogram with three dots . Let's take a quick look at those that require clarification:

1. "Archive"- I have already touched on this option, which consists in the fact that the letter is placed in the archive. At the same time, it will not be difficult to find it in the folder "All Mail" or using the search, which, as we found out, is very functional. At the same time, if a reply is received to a message in the archive, it will automatically reappear in the Inbox folder.

2. "To spam"- as we already know, GMail confidently recognizes letters from spammers and automatically places them in the appropriate folder. But there are no ideal algorithms, so from time to time such messages may appear in the Inbox. However, users themselves can send to the folder "Spam" unwanted correspondence. By the way, such actions help the system make the necessary adjustments when automatically filtering messages.

3. "Delete"— move the selected letter(s) to a folder "Basket", located in the list of other shortcuts in the left menu (to see it, click on the "More" link). Transferring messages to the trash does not lead to their physical deletion from the server, and therefore the correspondence that got there can be restored or completely and completely eliminated.

4. "Mark as read" I think there is no need to comment here. I remind you that all unread messages in the list are highlighted in bold by default.

5. "Delay"- if the received message is not super-duper important, and you do not have the time or opportunity to respond to it immediately, you can set the time when it will appear in your inbox again, reminding you of yourself. Another cool feature (already got a lot, don't you think?).

6. "Move"— send the selected message to the desired folder, a list of which will appear when you click on the corresponding symbol.

7. "Labels"- you can immediately define an existing label for a selected letter or group of messages from the list that appears when you click on the icon, or create a new one and immediately place messages there.

Well, a couple of options from the already mentioned menu under the button with three dots:

"Add to tasks"- this function allows you to associate the selected letter with the execution of a particular task. After selecting this item, a special section will open on the right side of the interface, where you can only add the necessary information regarding this particular message, but also set a new task:


When is it needed? Well, let's say, if you are a manager or owner of a large or even not very large company, then this option will help in receiving applications from customers and their subsequent distribution among employees and specialized departments.

"Ignore"- perhaps you have experienced situations when you get bored with frequently received letters of approximately the same subject, which, however, you do not dare to send straight to spam or delete, feeling that they will be useful in the future.

That's when this option comes to the rescue. After you ignore one such message, the next will no longer be present in the Inbox. But you can always return the chains of these messages from the bowels of the All Mail folder.

To read the received letter, you need to select it from the list by clicking the left mouse button (although everyone seems to know this, but ignorant beginners may not be aware of it). Moreover, when the cursor is brought to the message, some icons of the functions we have analyzed just above appear in the list (I believe you already know them):


Go ahead. To write a letter, you need to use the button with the "plus", located immediately above the list of shortcuts (folders) on the left (see the fourth screenshot above). After clicking on it, a window for writing and sending a letter will appear, which is also full of a variety of possibilities:

I think everything here is absolutely clear and laid out on the shelves. The only thing I can explain is what it means confidential mode. This option makes it possible, for example, to determine the period after which it will be impossible to read the letter, activate access to the received message using a special code, and also block forwarding. Such measures will improve the security of the transmission of important information.

And now let's see what operations can be performed with the received messages. Let me remind you that to go to the content of the letter, you need to click on it in the inbox. If the message was received in a language other than the one set in the interface of your account, then it can be translated (say, from English into Russian) using built-in google translator:


Well, on the right side of the open message page there will be a list of all kinds of operations that can be applied to it. This list of functions is called from the drop-down menu by clicking on the icon with the dots:


You can immediately write a response, forward it, create a filter (filtering was mentioned above), print it, add the sender to contacts or block, delete the letter, etc.

Hangouts Chat and 15 GB with Google Disc and Google Photos

It seems that everything has been taken apart, but there are still a couple of points that are worth mentioning. Let's say the bottom left of your account window is enabled by default chat window associated with Hangouts instant messaging service together with desired settings and the ability to search for contacts, in which you can communicate with the right people using this messenger:


Describing the functionality of GMail, it is necessary to mention that after registration you receive free use of 15 gigabytes free space(but keep in mind that it is intended not only for mail, but also for your images and files stored on services and Google Photos). Information about the currently used volume is displayed at the very bottom, just to the right of the chat. You can increase the size of your existing storage by clicking on the "Manage" link and

Friends, welcome to my blog!

Let's consider in this article step by step what is -.

Google is the largest search engine in the world. It has its own mail service Gmail, where you can make free email address and with it get access to several other services, including YouTube.

Gmail mail registration in Russian

To start registration, go to gmail site. Now click on "Create an account" profile login.

A simple form will appear that you need to fill out.

In the first and last name fields, it is best to indicate real data. This can be useful for using other services, as well as, if necessary, returning access to the mailbox if you lose your password. You can hide your details, so don't worry, no one will know more about you than you let them.

Username (nickname) is your login. It will be displayed in the name of your mailbox. You need to create your own login. It can consist of Latin letters, symbols and numbers.

The password should be chosen in such a way that it is as complex as possible. In addition to the fact that you will use it to access your mail, it will also protect your mailbox from being hacked. In combination, you can use letters(it is desirable to combine small and large letters) and numbers.

! The password can be written down in a safe place so as not to forget.
! Otherwise, you will not be able to access your mail.

Phone, country and alternate mail address can be omitted - they are not needed for registration.

If after you clicked " Further", some of the fields are highlighted in red, which means you missed something or entered incorrectly. Correct the error and click again "Further".

After all fields are filled in, you will be prompted to read "Terms of Use" .

There are no points that you are being sold into slavery, so feel free to click "I accept" - Without this registration will not pass. Now you will be shown a window where the address of your mailbox will be written. Write it down somewhere so you don't forget.

To go to your mail, you need to click on the button "Go to Gmail" .

How to come up with a username for gmail mail

There may be some difficulties with creating a username. The fact is that each such login in the Google system must be unique, that is, two identical addresses cannot exist.

If the login you entered is already taken, the system will notify you (red text will appear below the field) and offer several unique options that you could use.

They are created based on the entered first name, last name and login. If you do not want to choose from what the system has suggested, come up with a different nickname.

An additional parameter for the username is its length. It must not be shorter than 6 characters and longer than 30.

You can't change the name after creating the box, so think carefully before choosing the final option. If you only need mail to register on some resources, then the name is not important.

Your Google mail username

As mentioned above, the username will be displayed in the name of your mailbox, and it will be your email address. After creating the mail, “@gmail.com” will be added to it. Your address will look like this:

It turns out that the name of the mailbox is made up of the username and the name of the mail service, interconnected "dog" . The address is written together, the dot is placed only before "com" .

You can give this address to friends, acquaintances or clients to contact you.

How to find your google mail address

After logging into your profile, you will see a welcome window that explains why Google mail is the best, etc.

This window can be safely closed, it will not be shown to you again.

To find out your email address, you need to click on the icon with the letter of your name in the upper right part of the window. A small hint will appear, where the address will be written.

How to login to your google mail

To access your mail, you need to do a few simple manipulations. Generally, browsers remember our data so that we don't have to enter it all the time.

Therefore, to enter you will need to simply go to google site and in the right corner click on the icon with squares.

From the drop-down menu, select the Mail icon and that's it. The box will open and you can use it.

If the browser did not save your data or you are accessing the mail from another computer, you will need to enter a username and password. And first you enter the login, then the password

Features of gmail mail

The most obvious features of mail are receiving and sending letters. It can be both work correspondence and friendly. You can attach various files to emails, such as photos or documents.

Update from 14.02.2016 If you cannot log into your mail, then I wrote about how to solve this problem.

Gmail.com mail - login

Logging into Gmail is very easy. Immediately after creating an account, you will be automatically authorized, that is, you will enter it. However, you will always need to log in and out of your account when you're done. Logging out is especially important if you use a shared computer (for example, in a library or office). This simple action will protect your letters from prying eyes.

Note: Article updated June 13, 2015 . There are people who experience some difficulties when entering the mail. We did not find detailed and accurate information why they fail. We also tried to login with different computers with different operating systems— there were no problems, everything is standard. Therefore, we have come to the conclusion that those who are unable to log in are doing something wrong. Perhaps you are confusing Gmail.ru and Gmail.com services. The first has nothing to do with Google, including Gmail.com, they are two different email services, so don't get confused. Also keep in mind that Gmail.com is a product of Google, so it's okay if the Gmail.com page redirects to a Google page. We also noticed some small changes, so we updated the article with all the images. Follow the steps below to sign in to Google mail. Should work without problems. If not, then write in the comments, but in detail.

To enter mail:

To log out of mail:

  • In the top right corner, click on your photo and select Sign out.

Import mail and contacts

Perhaps you already have a list of contacts in another mailbox, and it will take a long time to manually transfer it to a new mailbox. Gmail allows you to import contacts from other email accounts, and you can even import all of your emails. You can import mail and contacts from many mail services, such as Yandex, Mail.
