Email setup

Each email account has a whole bunch of different settings. You can change almost everything in it - information about yourself, password, email design and much more. To do this, you first need to go to your email account, and then open the part that is responsible for changing the parameters.

Yandex Mail

In the upper right corner, next to the name of the email box, there is a gear icon.

After clicking on it, a small window opens, at the top of which the most popular settings are collected. You can select one of them or click on the All Settings link at the top.

A page will open where you can change the necessary parameters. On the left side there will be a menu for moving to other settings.

To return to regular mail(s), click on “Letters” in the top left.

Mail.ru

A page opens with a list of what can be changed in the mail.

On the left there will be a list for quickly moving to other parameters. You can also return to your emails through it by clicking on the “Go to Inbox” link at the top.

Gmail.com (mail from Google)

To change Google mail settings, you need to click on the picture with the image of a gear in the upper right corner of your mailbox.

A small list will appear. Click on “Settings”.

A new page will open. On a gray background there will be a bunch of parameters that can be changed.

But that is not all! At the top there are bookmarks for editing other settings.

The most important settings

Of all this heap of settings, I have identified only three that really need to be changed - the sender's name, photo and signature.

The sender's name is what will be written in the "From" part. As a rule, this is the data that the recipient sees when a new letter arrives.

A photograph is a small image that will be used to decorate each of your messages. This can be either a personal photograph or just a picture. It's not necessary to add it, but many people like it :)

Signature is text that is automatically added to each letter. Convenient to use for business correspondence, so as not to have to retype contact information each time.

Where to change

Yandex.Mail: → Personal data, signature, portrait.

Mail.ru: Settings → Sender's name and signature. To add/edit a photo, click on “Personal information” in the menu on the left.

Gmail.com. To change the sender's name:

To add a signature to letters:

Adding/changing a photo: click on the upper right circle with the image of a man or an already added photo and select “change photo”.

How to check

Let's say in my email settings I specified a name, added a photo and a signature. The easiest way to check the result is to send a letter to yourself, to your own address.

This is the letter I received in my case:

This means that this name and picture will now be added to all the letters that I send. And if you open the letter, there will be a signature under its text. In my case this is a contact block.

If suddenly the result does not live up to expectations, it can always be corrected in the same way (see Where to change).
