Today in our country there are two search engines, leading in popularity and significantly ahead of all others in terms of frequency of use. These are Google and Yandex. Moreover, the latter is an exclusively Russian development. In addition to the search function, Yandex offers a number of other useful services to its users, including e-mail. If you are not yet using this resource, then read about how to create a new mailbox on Yandex and what opportunities it provides.
First of all, you need to get to the main page of the search engine. To do this, in the address bar you must enter its url-address - www.yandex.ru. In the upper right corner you will see a small square box called "Mail". We need a button that allows you to create a mailbox on Yandex. It's called "Get Mail". Click on it and go to the registration section.
Instructions for registering a new mailbox in Yandex
In order to register in the system, you must enter your personal data in the appropriate fields:
- surname;
- name;
- login.
How to choose a login?
Login is a unique identifier that you will use to enter mail and other services in Yandex. To facilitate the creation of a login, you will be offered a list of 10 names based on your personal data (name and surname). If you are not satisfied with the proposed options, you can come up with your own, but it should not match the names already registered in the system. Otherwise, you will have to pick up another until you finally find a free one. Please note: when the creation of a mailbox on Yandex is completed, it will be impossible to change the login.
Creating a password
Next, you will be directed to the password registration page for your email. In order to create a new mailbox on Yandex, you will need a strong and preferably complex password. The security of your mail from hacking directly depends on this, so take this step seriously. It is recommended not to use simple words as an access code (they will be easy for intruders to pick up), as well as names, dates of birth, passport details, and similar personal information. To create a fairly complex password, use "illogical"sequence from:
- lowercase and capital letters;
- numbers;
- allowed punctuation marks (comma, period, asterisk, brackets, etc.).
You can use a very simple idea - come up with a phrase in Russian and write it using the English keyboard layout. In the future, do not tell anyone your password, Yandex specialists do not have the right to ask him.
Security question
The next step to go through to create a new mailbox on Yandex is to come up with and answer a security question. It is needed to recover your password in case you forgot it. The question also shouldn't be "what's my name?" and only you should know the answer.
Mobile phone
If you wish, you can add your mobile phone number during registration, which will be linked to your mailbox. It will also be used for password recovery. In addition, it will be able to receive some important notifications. This number binding procedure is also available after a new mailbox on Yandex has been created. It can be found in the corresponding section "Phone numbers".
Final stage
Now you only have a few steps to go. Enter the special characters (code) generated automatically. This is necessary to prove to the system that you are not a robot, but a real person. After entering, press the button"Get mail". Your own mailing address is now available to you.
We use Yandex mail
First you need to open a mailbox on "Yandex". You can also do this from the main page. In the upper right corner in the blue block, enter your username and password. If you are logging in from someone else's computer, check the box next to the corresponding item. You will be taken to the box for your letters. Here you can:
- write, read and forward a letter;
- sort, group letters;
- customize the appearance of the interface (choose a design, splash screen);
- set up various email programs;
- subscribe to RSS feeds;
- much more.
Using the built-in functions, you can set up automatic sorting of messages into folders. To do this, you need to create rules with certain conditions under which letters will fall into a particular section. If you have created separate mail for certain addresses (for example, letters for work), then you can configure their automatic forwarding in the "Mail processing rules" section. You will learn about other features of Yandex-mail when you create your own mailbox.
Mail for domain on "Yandex"
In addition to regular mail, you can create a new mailbox on "Yandex" with a unique address in the form "[email protected]". Here, the name can be anythe word you like, and as a domain - the name of your domain, if any. At the same time, you can create up to a thousand mailboxes on a single domain registered on Yandex. This is convenient, including for owners of small companies. So you can connect your organization's domain to Yandex-mail and set up mailboxes on it for all your employees. Or if you are the curator of a group of students - create your own domain mail and communicate with all your students easily and quickly.
For example, an e-mail box of this kind might look like [email protected]. Here sara is the name of the mailbox owner, and artstudio is the name of the organization that owns the mail domain.
How to create a new mailbox on Yandex for your domain
The first thing you need to do is connect your domain to the Yandex service. On the "Domain connection" page, you need to enter its name in the appropriate form and click the "Connect" button. You will be taken to a page with a list of domains you have added. In order to start using the Yandex. Mail service, you need to go through two steps:
- verify that you own this domain;
- delegate the domain to manage Yandex services.
After that, the entrance to your mailbox will be available at the address mail.yandex.ru/for/domain name.ru. If you want to be able to open a mailbox on Yandex through your interface, then you need to configure access to the authorization form ondomain. This will use the address of the form mail.domain name.ru.
You can do this using the DNS record editor provided by your domain registrar. Here you need to specify the following data:
- subdomain name (mail);
- record type (cname);
- data (domain.mail.yandex.net).
After that, the link mail.domainname.ru will automatically redirect you to the page of your mailbox mail.yandex.ru/for/domainname.ru.
