Gmail com mail. What is the Gmail service on the phone?

Hello! Today I would like to talk about Post service Gmail(email from Google). Surely, you are already familiar with him; I personally met him relatively recently, about 4 months ago. Before that, I used Mail.ru, but after switching to Gmail, I realized that the latter is truly the best in the world. Why? I'll tell you more about this below.

What made me switch to another email service? This is beautiful, that is, now my mail has next view: petr@site. Not bad, right? Yes, of course, this can be done in Yandex, but for some reason I settled on Gmail and I don’t regret it at all. Register for Gmail.com will not be difficult, but I still recommend that instead of the usual registration, you immediately make a beautiful mail with your own domain name(I told you how to do this).

How I use Gmail email

1. I empty my inbox.

In the “Inbox” folder I only have relevant letters that require some action: reply, follow up on some actions, etc. When a certain letter becomes irrelevant, I just I'm sending it to the archives. What is an archive? These are emails that are not visible in your inbox but are searchable. Here is the “Archive” button:

Also, letters that are sent to the “Archive” are available through the “All Mail” folder. This way, my inbox is always clean. If you are sure that you will definitely never need a particular letter, then instead of “Archive” you can safely click on the “Delete” button.

2. I mark important emails.

Some letters require an urgent response or are extremely important to me. And while I’m sorting out my mail, the first thing I do is go to the “Tagged” folder:

Marking a letter is very simple: just in the right top corner click on the “star”:

If one star is not enough for you, you can use a bunch of marks. To enable them, you need to go to Settings -> General -> Stars:

3. I use “Shortcuts”.

For example, in this moment passes and it is very convenient for me to collect letters from each participant in separate folder. What did I do for this?

  1. I opened a letter from a marathon participant and clicked on the arrow in the upper right corner:
  2. From the list I selected “Filter similar emails”:
  3. In the “From” field, I entered the email address of the marathon participant and clicked on the “Create a filter according to this request” button:
  4. In the “Apply shortcut” line, click on the “Select a shortcut...” button:
  5. Already there I clicked on the “Create shortcut” button:
  6. I gave the shortcut a name (in my case, I wrote the website address of this participant) and clicked on the “Create” button:
  7. That's all! The shortcut has been created, now all letters from [email protected] will automatically go to the pupkin.ru folder:

This way you can filter letters by mailbox, subject, etc.

Assign a specific color to each label, thereby increasing visibility significantly:

4. I mark automated emails as read.

Letters often come from exchanges such as Rotapost and others. I need them, but I don't like them to be “unread emails.” For such letters from exchanges, I also create filters, just in step 4 of the previous paragraph (see above), I check the box next to “Mark as read” (I do not create labels for these letters):

6. I actively use search.

Do you need to collect all correspondence with a specific recipient? No problem! This is very easy to do in Gmail. Just enter the mailbox address of the person you need and voila! , all the letters from him are before your eyes:

It really helps when the person you are corresponding with does not use the message history in their email. Then they wonder why I don’t answer their letters? And sometimes I don’t even remember what I talked about with this person. Honestly, the search is very useful. I'm also looking for all sorts of keywords and I actually find the letters I need.

Also, what’s great about Gmail is that all emails that are replies are collected in email chains(saving space in the list of letters and making it easier to track history).

7. It is very convenient to use Gmail email through your mobile phone.

You can easily find an application for almost any phone here http://gmail.com/app. Or you can use the browser version of the Gmail website, which is still very convenient (mail is “narrowed” to fit the screen size). There are also a lot of applications produced by third-party developers. For example, on my beloved iPhone I use the Sparrow app, which is really very convenient. On the iPad, I use mail in the browser, everything works great.

Gmail is email from Google. To date this free service most popular among ordinary users, business people and large companies. Gmail.com is characterized by convenient user interface and an abundance of functions and capabilities. You can access Gmail from any device connected to the Internet. If you are still using the computer version of the email program, it's time to register email box and evaluate its benefits.
In addition to a convenient web interface and a number of functions, Google mail does not allow spam to pass through, and this captivates mailbox owners. Many users who have email accounts on other services set up correspondence forwarding because they are confident that Gmail.com will not let dubious emails through. Another advantage of Google's email service is working with correspondence. This includes sorting letters in all possible ways, and marking them, and importing, and moving, and sending, and receiving, and quoting, and various filters and other useful, convenient options.

Google's email service supports a secure connection, which is very important for protecting confidential information. If someone tries to access your email from another address, you will be immediately warned about this. That's why we decided to tell you in detail everything about Gmail.com - a free email service from Google.

Foreign users give the palm to Gmail, although just recently it seemed that no one would surpass the giant Hotmail (the new name for Outlook). But domestic users prefer the mail service from Mail.ru. Maybe out of habit, because it was created much earlier. Although, recently more and more business people are moving to Gmail.com - there are more opportunities.

Registering and creating a mailbox in Gmail

So, let's start by registering in the service and creating a mailbox. Before we do this, allow ourselves a small digression. The Gmail.ru domain does not belong to Google, and it appeared long before the “birth” of mail. It is possible that at one time they tried to get it, but the attempt failed. Now the RU domain of the same name is a service that forwards email from SMS, Jabber, ICQ, etc.

And we will register on . That's what it is postal service Google Corporation.


If you don't have a Google account, you'll be prompted to create one and register your Mailbox in this service. A single account is valid for all services. Click the appropriate link button and begin registration. You will be redirected to a page with web forms. It is necessary to fill out each line, and do so carefully and thoughtfully. Don’t forget to pick up an original mailbox for yourself, although, admittedly, this is not at all easy due to the enormous popularity of the postal service. But if you use your imagination, you will get a beautiful name.


Gmail allows dots in the mail name. And owners of web resources can write the name of their website.

If you're planning on using your Gmail.com inbox, be sure to fill out the information on the form seriously. But do not forget about the security of the confidential information you enter. Google's email service uses an encrypted connection and is very well protected from unauthorized entry, but there will always be resourceful attackers.

For example, if you come up with a weak or frequently repeated password, your email may be hacked. What if, for example, you use this email to withdraw money from an electronic wallet? When hacked, the attacker receives a confirmation code and easily steals your money, transferring it to his wallet or card.

Therefore, take your password creation seriously. Compose it on a piece of paper by mixing large and small letters of the English alphabet into a single phrase and adding various signs to them. If you don't know how to come up with complex passwords, use special utility. It will not only generate complex password, but will also save it so you don’t forget it. The most popular of them is, free manager passwords. Even an untrained user will find it easy to understand the program.

Another opportunity to protect your mailbox from hacking is to specify a real email. Don't ignore this point. If your email is hacked or you forget your password, an additional email account will allow you to regain access to your account. There is another way - indicate your real mobile phone, which will also help you recover if your password is lost or hacked. However, the number you indicate must already be real, since without a confirmation code you will not be able to complete the registration.


But we settled on an additional (real) mailbox. Enter its details so that if something happens, you can receive a confirmation code and solve problems with losing your password and restoring access if such a situation arises.


To continue registration, carefully fill out each field, traditionally agree to all terms of use of the service and click submit web form. You can upload the photo immediately, or you can make all the settings later. You will find yourself on new page, where you must enter your email name and password. Now you can manage your email account: get acquainted, configure, write and receive correspondence.

Sign in and get to know the Gmail interface

If you already have an account registered, then you have mail. Log in while on any search engine service. At the top right, if you are logged in, you will see your name. Click on it and select your email service.


Or copy gmail.com to the address bar and press enter. If you are authorized in your account, you do not need to enter any passwords or names - you will immediately find yourself on home page mail. So what do we see in the interface? Simplicity, convenience and information content are the main features of Google mail. And the developers try not to change anything, probably guided by the saying: the best is the enemy of the good.


On the top menu bar there are sections with “Unsorted” and advertising (offering a product or service) letters and correspondence from social networks. And if you click on “Plus”, “Forum” and “Alerts” will open.


The know-how of the service from Google is chats. At the same time, the user can communicate in traditional and video chat. Users have not yet appreciated all the benefits of this function, since Google has not abandoned the abundance of advertising messages. Annoying, constantly out of place and timely pop-up advertisements prevent normal communication.


Google's email service supports all browsers, but displays mail differently. At the time of loading, the capabilities of the browser are assessed, and depending on this, the required version. If you are using modern browser, you will be able to appreciate the beauty of the web interface. If you use, for example, old version Operas, mail will be loaded in HTML. And if you are not satisfied with the loading speed of interface elements, you can choose a lightweight version of the email service.


15 GB of free space - a lot or a little? Probably a huge number for letters, but not so much for photographs and documents stored in a cloud service. But the storage capacity can be easily increased, albeit at a reasonable cost.

When you log into your email, you will see a couple of letters. This postal service information service tells you what you get as a result of creating a mailbox, and also advertises social Google network Plus.

Pros and cons of Gmail, security settings

If you used other email services before creating an account on Gmail.com, continue to do so. Rather, the easiest way would be to use the convenient function of forwarding all correspondence. Collecting letters is an excellent opportunity not to abandon other mailboxes, but also not to have to log in to read new correspondence. We'll tell you how to collect all the letters in one box a little later.

Google mail can also be used on a smartphone that supports Android. Do you know the beauty of using Gmail rather than a program installed on your computer/phone? You will forget about synchronization between all your devices.

At the same time, it should be recognized that mail program In terms of capabilities, it is still one step ahead of the web interface. But Gmail.com is catching up, offering the mailbox owner more and more opportunities. And now Jimail is an excellent alternative to non-mobile mail.

When Google first launched its email service, it caused a storm of indignation, and here's why. When a user logs into their mailbox, they see contextual ads. And each of them echoes the subject of the letters. For example, you ordered a jacket on a website with outerwear, and you received an email for payment. And then you are shown advertising blocks with jackets. It is logical that the owner of the box is outraged. But not by displaying an advertisement, but by matching it to the context of the letter. And the postal service began to be suspected of reading letters.

Time passed, and the scandalous passions subsided. Many felt that the invasion of space was disproportionate to the good that the postal service offers. In short, the good outweighed the bad.

Now we will touch on an important topic - how to work with your mail safely. All this needs to be configured, and we will do this. All settings are made in a separate section. Click on the gear and go to settings.


If you want to configure login by IP address, click on “Additional information”. It is located at the bottom of the interface. There is all the information about logging into your mailbox.


If you have nothing to fear and you get regular letters, for example, from friends, you may not care much about data protection. But if the correspondence received is very important (passwords are transmitted in it, confidential information, documents), protect your mailbox as securely as possible. And it can be done. Jimail provides two-step authentication. Yes, it will be difficult to work with such an email service, but it is very reliable. Firstly, to access your mail, you will have to go through authorization by entering the traditional name and password, and secondly, indicate the SMS code received on your phone. Set up such authentication using " ".


Don’t ignore the opportunity to secure your work with the email service so that confidential information does not become known to attackers.

We'll cover two-step authentication. Here's what's available to you:

Shortcuts (folders) and their settings in Google mail

To sort letters in the mail service Gmail.com, you need to use filters and shortcuts (folders). Filters are configured according to different criteria and allow you to automatic mode sort correspondence into separate folders (labels). Unlike traditional folders that exist in various email services, shortcuts in Gmail have advanced capabilities. Each folder can be customized to suit your needs. You can, of course, not change the set of shortcuts located on the left and created by default.

To delete or change these shortcuts, go to Settings by clicking on the gear. The second tab is responsible for setting up the menu on the left. Activate or, conversely, uncheck the desired shortcut, delete, move.


And by using the corresponding button, you can create a new shortcut. You can do it differently. When you read a particular email, click the shortcut and follow the instructions.

If you are confused about the interface elements, configure it so that not icons are shown, but familiar text labels.


After configuration, everything falls into place, and we realized that the inbox folder in Gmail is a shortcut. This email service has an attachment option. One main shortcut can have several secondary subfolders.

For example, it will be very convenient if you create a label with advertising correspondence, and then add several folders (shortcuts) specifying advertising products.


In the menu on the left you will see all your shortcuts. And to edit, change, rename, delete them, use the arrow on the right. And the arrow on the left allows you to manage investments. When you click on it, they expand and are available for editing.


If you want to edit a shortcut, click on the right arrow and call context menu. Once opened, you will be presented with a list of changes. Select the desired item and save the edited shortcut.


For example, the first thing you can do is change the colors of the labels. It's comfortable. You can immediately see which letter you received from which shortcut (folder). But we recommend that you do not store such emails in your inbox, but immediately redirect them to the appropriate labels. Automatic redirection is a convenient feature. And all you need to do is set up redirection according to certain criteria. And let the inbox contain correspondence that does not fall under the filters, and you yourself will distribute it when you read it.


While viewing correspondence, you can immediately delete the label by clicking on the cross.


If you delete “Incoming” correspondence, it will be archived. Messages, even deleted ones, are not lost because they are saved in the “All mail” label. If it seems to you that such an interface does not simplify, but rather complicates working with mail, this is temporary. To shortcuts, etc. you need to get used to it and adjust everything to your needs.

If you do not want to filter correspondence automatically, use the manual method. Read the letter and move it to a suitable shortcut or delete it. This can be done using a special menu button. This method is labor-intensive and is only suitable for those who do not receive many letters. And for the rest there is automatic redirection or filtering according to specified parameters.

Filters in Jimail and a detailed example of their use

So, how to use a great email service tool - filters? Go to the menu by clicking on the gear. A tab with filters will open if you have already created them. You can edit, delete, change them. If there are no filters, click the corresponding button to create them.


You will be redirected to a new window. Creating filters is not difficult, but you will have to think about it, calling on logical thinking to help. An algorithm must be specified according to which the service will filter all letters that match it into one folder (shortcut). If you have an email program installed on your computer and you actively use it, you are familiar with filters.


Don't be afraid to create the wrong filter. If the system does not understand the algorithm you specify, you can change it until everything goes well. Which filters to choose? By friend's name, organization name, subject of correspondence, address, term, etc.

Once the algorithm is created, you will have to choose what the system should do with these emails that fall under it. For example, it should automatically redirect to a shortcut called "Ads" or "Friends" or "Work". Or maybe delete it or send it to another address? If you need to filter correspondence from other mailboxes collected by the system, do it as in the picture:


So what we see in this filter we created:

See how simple it is. Check the created filter. If there are errors in the algorithm, correct them. If everything works as it should, you will see how filters from Gmail.com simplify your work with mail. Most importantly, they organize correspondence.

Import contacts and letters into Gmail, work with old mailboxes via Google mail

So, you registered on Gmail.com, figured it out, liked everything and want to continue working with the service. But you also have other mailboxes where contacts, important emails, confidential information, etc. are stored. How to move to Gmail and not lose “along the way” everything that has been accumulated over time? The transition is not difficult, but it takes a long time. To transfer all letters and contacts, you will have to move for two days. And even though Google will provide you with a number of options. The only consolation is that the “move” is automatic. And all you need is the appropriate settings and a little patience.

Don’t be afraid to move: you won’t lose anything, but on the contrary, you will gain. Everything you used before will, firstly, be improved, plus new functionality will be added. Secondly, you will not lose old contacts, since they will not understand that you refused or rarely visit old mailboxes. All correspondence that continues to arrive there will be redirected to the new mailbox. Collecting correspondence works great and not a single letter gets lost. In this case, all contacts will remain the same.

To configure everything we described above, go to the “ Accounts and import" Click on the appropriate option to import mail and contacts. And click the link like the following picture:


You can import correspondence and contacts from anywhere, even from the oldest mailboxes. The entire list is available at this link, check it out. The Import Wizard will begin its work from the first step. Specify which email service you want to collect mail from by entering your email address. Then you need to log in to this mailbox.


In the third step, you must decide on the content to import. You also choose further actions: continue to import all letters received subsequently and save them in a separate folder (shortcut).


When you select what suits you, click "Import". This process, we repeat, is long, so don’t be afraid to miss something and don’t be nervous. Go to Settings to see that the process is complete.

Useful Settings and Gmail Lab

So, we looked at all the features of Gmail.com with the exception of the chat function and a few others. You can try for yourself how the chat works. We don't think it's that difficult to figure out. There is one more feature in Gmail - smart mode. It can be configured in such a way that the system will filter all new correspondence in the Inbox as important and unimportant. There is also a “Themes” tab. Well, everything is clear here, and you yourself will figure out how to change appearance your mail. Design it so that the web interface is pleasing to the eye.


So, what else do we have left on the “General” tab in Settings:

These are the basic settings. What we missed is not so important or is present in other email services and does not need detailed mention. But that doesn't mean these options aren't worth considering. Study them, perhaps they will be useful and relevant for you.

So, at the final stage, we will tell you about the Gmail Laboratory.


For five years, the developers tested the email service, and it was for these innovations that the Laboratory was responsible and continues to do so.

First, a certain addition appeared in it, was tested, and then went into the settings and took a permanent place. This innovation helps the company improve its mail service, introducing only those innovations that are popular and take root among users.

Currently, any user of the World Wide Web can create an email account, because it is very simple 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 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 hesitate to use simple ones 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 a few 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. On 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 except you, of course, can get into your mailbox.

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!
