Mail my world mail. My mail. Interface and hotkeys

A social network called My World appeared in 2007. This happened a few months after the other two currently very popular Internet projects VKontakte and Odnoklassniki were created. Unlike them, the website from the Mail.ru holding initially combined several functions at once - it was not only a social network, but also mail, video and audio hosting, its own blogs, and so on.

At that time, social networks began to actively enter our lives, so it is not surprising that in the first six months as many as five million users were registered on the resource! But do not rush to be surprised by this figure, since everything is not so simple here. The fact is that those users who initially used mail from Mail.ru automatically received a page. It is therefore not unusual that after a few more months the number of registered participants increased by another five million.

Today it is a full-fledged social network with a lot of various services that you can use. According to representatives of My World, there are currently at least 45 million participants registered on the site, and at least 300 thousand of them are constantly online.

By the way, a very interesting fact that has appeared more than once on the pages of our website - it is the Mail.ru holding that owns the social network My World, Odnoklassniki and part of VKontakte. By the way, when the project was launched, the developers, according to some sources, wanted to make paid registration, but eventually abandoned this idea. And they did the right thing.

But enough of the lyrics. In order to get to your page in My World, you need to follow the link http://mail.ru/. On the right side of the screen you need to enter the login for your email account, as well as your password.

Please pay special attention to the fact that you must choose the ending of the mailbox address yourself. If you forget to do this, you will not be able to access your account.

What to do if you have forgotten your login password? To do this, you need to click the button of the same name and you will be taken to a page where you will be asked to enter your login and answer the security question that you specified during registration. If you have forgotten it, recovery is only possible with the help of support service. However, if you have verified your page by linking it to a mobile phone number, the password will come to you in the form of an SMS message. This is another important reason why we strongly recommend that you undergo verification on the project.

Try going to your email first. If you managed to get into the mail, just go to my world.

Forgot your password, then you need to visit and fill out the password recovery form. Here is the link http://e.mail.ru/cgi-bin/passremind.

Forgot the address of your mailbox, then contact the people with whom you were friends or wrote letters to them. They can look up your address in their email and tell you.

The mailbox has been deleted, you can try to log in again using your username and password. You will be prompted to restore your mailbox. Enter your username and password, click login, then restore.

The mailbox is blocked. Usually it is blocked when you violate the user agreement, which you should have read during registration, the link is attached http://help.mail.ru/mail-help/UA. To continue using your mailbox as usual, enter your username and password. The message unlock will appear. Clicking on it will unlock your box.

The mailbox does not exist. In this case, there is only one option - either check the correctness of the dialing if you are absolutely sure that you were registered there, or register if you were not registered.

Access is not possible due to technical reasons, which means you just need to try logging in a little later. There are problems with the service itself; the technical support service is troubleshooting this problem.

The username or password entered is incorrect. First of all, check if you have typed your username correctly. Make sure that what comes after the dog is selected correctly (that's the @ icon), here are the available options:

Please also ensure that the password is entered in the same language in which you entered it during registration. And the last nuance is to check the button called CapsLock, if it is pressed, it means that you will enter all capital letters. This also affects the correctness of the input.

Your account has been compromised. In this case, go to your mail and change the password and security question with the answer there. If you have linked your account to your mobile phone, you will need to enter a code that will be sent to your phone. If you have not linked your mobile phone number to your account, then at the time of such an inscription you will have to do so.

You try to log in, but you are constantly thrown out, as if you had not entered your login or password. In this case, you need to clear your browser cache.

Be careful if you are asked to send an SMS to unlock a page. If you read such a message on your screen, it means that a virus has entered your computer. The administration never asks you to send SMS to the number. Even if it is marked as free. The virus automatically changes the loading page to enter my world. To troubleshoot the problem and log in normally, you can download the file, here is a link to it, http://files.mail.ru/XSAR0P, and run it on your computer. Restart your computer. Log in to your personal page. At the same time, check your antivirus to make sure it has updated databases; if there is no antivirus, install it. Scan your computer with an updated antivirus.

Nowadays there is a widespread belief that all you have to do is create it and your page will appear right away, but this is not true. Yes, to register (absolutely free) on this service you need to have such an email, but it still happens separately. Intuitive interface, colorful instructions, and registering on the page will not cause any problems.

Created in 2007, the social network is now visited by up to 30 million people every month. This is a huge number. One of the 3 largest services, My World, is constantly developing and improving its interface. So, in 2012, a rather serious update was carried out, which affected all areas of the service.

A special function allows you to immediately see guests visiting the page. See where they come from, find out their preferences and tastes.

It is free to use, but some additional services still require some investment. For example, for a fee you can set up a VIP status, which gives additional features to your account.

Mail.ru Mail

Mail.ru Mail(in common parlance simply Mile) is a free Russian email system. It is also called Mail.ru or Mail.ru. Mail on Mail.ru can be used from any computer that has Internet access and a program for viewing websites (Internet browser), as well as from a phone or smartphone. It was launched in 1998 and has always been free. Now it is the largest post office on the Russian Internet. You can get an address like [email protected], to correspond with friends, as well as to register on social networks and other sites.

If you already have an address on Mail.ru, click on the button to log into your email via “Site Login” - a convenient start page:

How to log in to Mail?

Maybe you already have an email address (that is, you have already registered on the site), but for some reason you cannot access the Mail.ru website. Maybe you just forgot the exact address and don’t know how to enter your mail or the Mail.ru login page. Another option is if you want to access your mail from someone else’s computer, but there are different settings and in general everything is wrong. Don’t rush to search the Internet for “mail site” or “mail login.” There is a way to log in to your mail that is much easier.

Login to Mail.ru website

To quickly log into Mail.ru, a “Site Login” has been created. This is a very simple site from which you can go with one click not only to Mail, but also to social networking sites and dating - to all the main sites that are popular in Russia and the former CIS countries. You can set it as your starting (home) page so that you can quickly access any site next time.

To enter Mail.ru you will need to click "Entrance" in the appropriate block, then enter your name and password. Our website will also ask for access permission to show you if you have new emails. Only you will see this.

Mail.ru won't open?

If Mail.ru does not open for you and it seems to you that it is not working at all, use the check function to find out for sure whether this is true: What happened to Mail.ru? Is it not opening for everyone or is it just me? On this page you will immediately see whether Mile is working now or not, that is, everyone has this problem or just you.

Check this, if it does not enter Mail.ru and an error is displayed "The username or password you entered is incorrect. Check that the entered data is correct":

  • Are you entering your username correctly?
  • Is the correct domain (address ending) selected - @mail.ru, @bk.ru, @list.ru, @inbox.ru?
  • How do you enter the password? Is it in the right language, and are you confusing small letters with big ones?
  • Is Caps Lock on your keyboard (capital letters) enabled?

Hello, dear readers of the blog site. Today I want to continue the conversation about the most popular services, and next up is - Mail.ru Mail. I won’t say that he is a generator of promising ideas and innovations in ensuring the convenience of working with correspondence, but he is a leader in this market in RuNet and this alone deserves respect.

In addition, over the past year and a half, the Mail.ru email development team has significantly expanded and they have managed to implement almost everything useful from competitors’ tools.

We also added convenient viewing of photos and office documents attached to letters directly in the web interface, mobile versions and applications, language support, a correspondence collector, a new interface, virus protection and much more.

Although they do not yet have such a high level (two-step authorization using a cell phone number and trusted computers), and they do not yet have a similar service, but most Mail.ru Mail users all this is either not necessary, or they never bothered with it at all. Therefore, I offer you an excursion into the capabilities and nuances of this free service, and you will decide for yourself whether to use it or not.

History of creation and current position of Mail.ru mail

It dates back to as far back as 1998 (not much later than that). True, at that time the project was called Port.ru and involved the development of a free email service engine for its subsequent sale abroad (not everyone knew about it at that time). However, due to a combination of circumstances, this project was tested in our RuNet on the Mail.ru domain and in the very first months of its existence showed phenomenal results in the growth of the number of users.

As can be seen from the screenshot, it was then proposed to use Yandex to search the Internet on the Port.ru portal. Then, after moving to a new domain, the owners began to offer their users, while simultaneously developing their own, to which they plan to completely switch in the near future (or have already switched).

Actually, to be surprised at the monstrous popularity of mailboxes from mail.ru It’s not worth it, because at that time Gmail and YaPochta did not exist at all, but there were only bourgeois projects ( and ), which at that time did not pamper the user with support for the Russian language. The new product with a Russian-language interface was liked and the number of registered mailboxes began to grow exponentially.

My first account was also registered on Mail, because at that time a similar service from Yandex had just appeared (2000) and had not yet gained the necessary popularity, and there were still several years to wait before the appearance of Gmail. There were no particular problems with its operation (it still hasn’t been hacked), and after some time, having become firmly hooked on Google’s brainchild, I simply set up redirection from my first mailbox to a new one in Gmail. Until recently, I didn’t even go into the Mail.ru mail interface.

As a person keenly interested in everything new and promising, I quickly switched to Gmail when it was still in beta testing (registration was only possible by invitation). However, the majority of users of this system remained faithful to it (it works and is fine) and this is the general trend in the development of this market. Beginners have to rely mainly on the influx of new users, and not on poaching audiences from competitors.

That is why mail service Mail.ru almost until 2011 did not develop much, resting on the laurels of popularity gained in previous years, when competition was very weak. However, the gap between their capabilities and the capabilities of their competitors grew more and more, and they even began to think about moving.

The owners became worried and decided to invest in the development of the service in order to completely keep up with their competitors. The development team was increased threefold, and in a year and a half, everything that I briefly listed at the beginning of the article was produced. As a result, the situation has now stabilized and shares of mail giants in RuNet frozen in approximately the following positions:

  1. Email Mail.ru - 25 million users
  2. The brainchild of Yandex - 16 million
  3. Still alive - 4 lyama
  4. Gmail - about the same

In the global ranking, Mail's email service occupies a modest fifth position, but this is still an impressive result, especially considering that more than two-thirds of this giant's audience is concentrated in Russia:

At the moment, about 400 million mailboxes are registered on Mail.ru, 100 of which can be called active (they log in and check their correspondence at least once every three months). And out of this hundred, a full fifth are accounts whose owners delete mail every day. Monstrous volumes - about three to four thousand letters pass through their data centers in just one second.

At this point, the excursion into the history and reasons stimulating the development of Mail.ru email can be considered complete. It's time to move on directly to the description of registration, login, settings and opportunities that this box provides to its users.

Registering a mailbox in Mail.ru (creating an account)

So, let's start, according to tradition, by registering the box and logging into it. Everything here is simple and straightforward. Go to the registration page and enter your first and last name in the form fields provided, as well as the desired E-mail address, or rather its beginning, because there will be only four ending options (@mail.ru, @list.ru, @bk.ru or @inbox.ru):

Please note that in this way you not only create an E-mail in mail.ru, but also get access to all other services of this mega-portal (in fact, a universal account).

It would seem that there is nothing complicated here. However, many thousands of mailboxes are hacked precisely because they set simple passwords that are easy to remember, but at the same time easy to guess (by brute force, for example). There is a misconception that since there is nothing to steal from you, then no one will break it.

There will be, because there are a number of reasons why hacking mailboxes is still relevant and is in demand:

  1. Absolutely any mailbox is valuable to a hacker, because it can then be sold, along with a bunch of others, to spammers who need them to send messages in millions of copies. If you want to help spammers and get your Mail.ru account blocked, set your password to QWERTY or 123456. Hacking in this and the two subsequent cases is carried out automatically by using a database of the most popular combinations or dictionaries.
  2. In a hacked mailbox, you can inadvertently (automatically) find data from your accounts on social networks, money systems, data for accessing websites and other things necessary in the hacker’s life, which can then be sold wholesale or retail (or monetized yourself).

    Even if you can’t find the passwords for these useful things, you can always request their recovery, and in most cases the accounts will be linked again to this same hacked Email.

  3. You may be blackmailed in order to return the mailbox or the confidential data stored in it. There are a lot of options, and in this case there will usually be one payment method - paid SMS.
  4. Well, in the rarest case, you will be broken purposefully at the request of ill-wishers or competitors. In this case, only a really strong password and its recovery using an SMS message that will be sent to the cell phone number specified during registration can help.

I hope that these arguments have convinced you of the need create a complex password when registering with Mail.ru. Another thing is that it’s not so easy to come up with, let alone remember.

This is where it comes to the rescue. A cool program that will generate a complex combination for you and remember it. The main thing is not to forget the password from Kipas itself, and it will store all the others (it’s a good idea to make a backup of the encrypted database with passwords in several places for greater reliability - I personally store it in).

I also strongly advise you not to be shy indicate your cell number when registering with Mail.ru-mail, because this will make recovering a lost password a trivial matter (otherwise you will have to fill out the appropriate form for a long time and tediously or write to support - [email protected]), and taking away your account is almost impossible.

If there are compelling arguments not to do this, then you will have to click on the link “I don’t have a mobile phone” and, in the old fashioned way, come up with a secret question and answer to it, which, by the way, can easily be broken through if an attacker starts digging into your social networks or other places, where you could leave information about yourself.

Again, social engineering (or a simple scam) should not be discounted when by E-mail or in the same social networks they can unobtrusively ask you in an innocent form for the answer to your secret question or slip a fake letter supposedly from a mail service with a link to a fake site that will look exactly like the Mail.ru login form, except for the URL in the browser address bar.

The conclusion that follows from this is that you only need to access the website of the mail service using a link from your browser bookmarks or search results.

If you specified your cell phone number at the second registration step, then after clicking the “Register” button, you will receive an SMS on your mobile phone with a confirmation code, which you will need to enter in the window that opens:

After this, you will be taken to the page of your newly created mailbox and will find several messages from the development team there. Actually, that's all. All that remains is to understand the current capabilities of [email protected] and see what can be configured there to make reading and writing letters, opening attachment files and doing other things easier and more convenient.

Login to Mail.ru-mail - folders, inboxes, filters and...

As I have already mentioned more than once, this service has existed for a very long time and many users have accumulated several mailboxes that were created at different times and for different purposes. You can, of course, assign forwarding or collect letters into one from all the others (we’ll talk about this below), so as not to log in and out of your account every time.

However, not so long ago the mountain itself approached Magomed, namely, it appeared multiple entry option to your accounts on Mail.ru. Let's say that first you log into one of your accounts as usual:

Then you can click on the name of your E-mail in the upper right corner of the window and click on “Add mailbox” to carry out entrance to another mailbox of yours:

After successfully logging into your second account, you can now quickly switch between them by simply clicking on your Email (at the top of the window on the right) and selecting the desired option (or logging into another mailbox of yours on Mail.ru):

It turned out to be quite convenient, although it may not be useful to everyone. But now let's talk about the atmosphere itself and...

Their new interface turned out to be quite laconic and not at all overloaded. The left column displays a list of your folders (initially there will be only five of them - Inbox, Sent Items, Drafts, Spam and Trash, but you are free to add as many as you like) and a couple of fairly convenient filters that allow you to show only unread or only flagged messages:

What seemed inconvenient to me was that the “Settings” button is hidden in the “More” drop-down list and I can’t find it right away (although it is duplicated in the upper right corner of the window). When viewing a list of letters in your Inbox (or any other folder), you will see it before the sender's name avatar, or the first letter stylized as it from his name.

Don't you like it? No problem - from the “View” drop-down list, select the “Compact” option and the extra graphics will disappear.

Messages from the list in Mail.ru can be moved between folders using the “Move” button at the bottom and top of the window, or by simply dragging with the mouse while holding down the left button. If you need to move several messages, simply select them with checkboxes. They are first deleted into the Recycle Bin, which can be cleared when you log out of your account, depending on the settings you have made. By the way, there is an opportunity, if necessary, along with all its contents.

It is possible to use Hotkeys. For example, the Ctrl key combination and the left or right arrow will allow you to move between previous and subsequent messages when viewing them, and the Delete key will send the message you are viewing to the Trash.

All modern email services use a spam cutter, and almost everywhere it does not work perfectly - it either lets through spam or classifies perfectly decent letters as spam. The second option, of course, is much more dangerous. In Mail.ru, spam cutting works quite well, but in addition to it there is the possibility of manual filtering.

Mark spam messages with a checkmark in your Inbox or any other folder (except the Spam folder) and click on one of the “This is spam” buttons located at the top or bottom:

It is clear that from time to time you will still have to look through the “Spam” folder for lost letters, and whenever you find them there, do not be lazy to check the box next to each of them and use the “Not Spam” button. In this way, spam cutting will learn and make fewer mistakes when filtering correspondence.

I liked the way email tagging is organized in the new Mail.ru electronic interface. Many people use the unread filter, both on desktop email programs and in the web interface. But it’s not always possible to quickly make a message read or unread.

Here it is implemented extremely simply - move the mouse cursor to the letter and you will see an outline of an orange circle in front of it, click on which you mark the message as unread(it will be highlighted in bold in the list and will have an orange circle in front of it):

Second fast way to mark letters in Mail.ru mail organized using checkboxes. All unread and flagged messages can be viewed using the appropriate filters located in the left column. Simple, but tasteful.

As I already mentioned, you are free to add as many new folders to your electronic interface as your heart desires. To do this, just click on the “Customize folders” link in the left column under the list of existing ones. As a result, the settings window will open, where you will need to click on the button located at the top "Add folder":

In the window that opens, you can give the folder a name, define its hierarchy (at the top level or nested in any other existing one), prohibit stationary programs from picking up mail from it, and even set a password for it, which may not be amiss to increase security or when several people work with one account (for example, corporate).

Tepericha about filters in the mailbox from Mail.ru- where would we be without them? Actually, they don’t offer us anything beyond outstanding (either it’s a Gmail thing), but the whole thing is extremely clear upon first acquaintance.

Find “Settings” in the upper right corner of the window and go to the “Filters and forwarding” section. There will be only one “Add filter” button, but from its context menu you can also extract the “Create forwarding” option. However, for now we are talking about filters, so we just press the button.

As a result, the filter creation wizard will open, which is quite simple and logical. First you need create conditions, upon fulfillment or non-fulfillment of which (the words “contains” or “does not contain” before the fields with conditions) it will be necessary to take some action. Conditions can be applied to such attributes of letters as the sender (the “from” field), recipient, subject of the message, its size, etc.

When writing conditions in Mail.ru mail, you can use the asterisk symbol “*” to replace any number of characters, as well as the vertical stick sign “|”, which replaces the logical operator “or”, allowing you to combine several possible options.

There can be as many conditions as you like, and the action will be performed either when at least one of them is met (the option at the bottom of the screenshot is “if one of the conditions is met”), or when all the conditions are met (the option is “if all the conditions are met”).

Next we should explain to the electronic interface, what action should be taken when “bingo” appears according to the conditions specified just above. The most common option would probably be to move a letter that satisfies the conditions to some folder created specifically for this:

You may want to flag or even delete this email. In addition, you will have the opportunity to forward this correspondence to another electronic mailbox (in fact, this will be a forwarding option, which is not always implemented, but only by condition), and also respond to it with a pre-prepared “stamp” or apply some other one to it. some kind of filter (create a cascade).

It would probably be correct to include the contents of the “Spam” folder in the run through the filters, because messages that are not at all spam can also randomly end up there. On the other hand, you can limit the filtering area to a separate folder, which you can select from a drop-down list. Well, then click on the “Save” button and enjoy the work of the created algorithm.

It will appear in the “Filters and forwarding” settings section, where you can quickly turn it on or off as needed. There you can configure and forward emails from your mailbox to Mail.ru to your other email in popular email services. To do this, just select the “Create forwarding” option:

In the window that opens, indicate the Email address where you want to forward all correspondence from this mailbox, and click on “Save”. After this, a new line will appear on your page with filters and forwarding, but it will be highlighted in red, meaning that all this equipment is not used until you click on the “Confirm” link and enter the forwarding code sent to your email :

When you confirm everything, your correspondence will be sent directly, immediately after arriving at your Mail.ru mailbox, to the address specified in the forwarding settings.

Other settings and options for email Mail

Although it is not the most sophisticated of all existing ones, some of its capabilities are worth paying attention to. Let me try to put this in the form of a list with a general title - what else is good about email from Mail.ru:

  1. The developers take pride in what they provide dimensionless mailbox, which initially has dimensions of 10 GB. When you fill it up, you will be given another two gigabytes of living space each time.
  2. They also talk about the unlimited size of attachments, but here they are definitely lying, because only files less than 25 MB will be transferred and stored on mail servers, and if this limit is exceeded, attachments will already be stored on the servers of the [email protected] service. This means that after a month they will be deleted, and the size of one attached object still cannot be more than 1 GB.
    1. But there is also good news regarding attachments to letters(sent and received in Mail.ru mailboxes):

      When you receive a message with attachments, you can directly in the list click on the paperclip and see their full list indicating the size (weight). When you hover your mouse over photo files, you will see their thumbnails next to them:

      If you click on any attachment file, a new window will open in which you can scroll through them all, and see pictures and office documents in full. For those objects that cannot be viewed, a “Download” link will appear.


    2. If open email with attachments in the electronic interface of Mail.ru, then at the bottom you will find previews of all attached files; the ability to display them in list or tile form; and also get the opportunity to download each object individually or all together in one archive, which will significantly increase speed and convenience:

      As I already mentioned, when you click on some file types, they can be view directly in the mail web interface without downloading to your computer. This will be true for presentations, office documents (Word, Excel, Power Point), photographs and music.

      If the file is an archive, then the Mail.ru interface will allow you to read the list of objects contained in it, which, if desired, can even be downloaded separately:

    3. What’s noteworthy is that all attachment files that have ever been attached to letters can be viewed separately, and if you wish, you can filter only attachments of a certain type by selecting from the top menu "Files", and in the left panel selecting their type:

      When you create a message in the mail.ru web interface, then to attach files the corresponding button will be in front of your eyes. Although you can simply drag and drop the necessary files into the browser window. But this is not the main thing.

      From my own experience, I know that most users, when sending photos, don’t really bother with their weight and size, and modern cameras produce simply monstrous resolutions. Most of us do not like or do not know how to use it, even if it allows it.

      This creates inconvenience for mobile Internet users and, more importantly, creates an increased load and requires large storage space from the servers of Mail.ru itself. Therefore, thinking first of all about their loved ones, they gave you and me a rather useful, in my opinion, opportunity automatic photo cropping when attaching them to a letter:

      On the larger side they will leave 800 pixels, which can reduce the weight of the photo by an order of magnitude without affecting its quality when viewed on a monitor screen. You will only need to decide on pruning once, and in the future it will be done without any questions. Well, another little bonus - when you move the mouse cursor to the attached photo you can turn it, which again will allow you not to bother with photo editors.

  3. There is support in mail from Mail.ru design themes for the electronic interface (at the very bottom of the window is the “Topics” link), which, in fact, is already the norm for this type of service. But there is also the possibility formatting letters using a fairly large set of templates (the “Style” drop-down list in the upper right part of the form for writing a new message). This can be useful when writing congratulatory or other special letters:

    A little to the left there is a block of buttons for carrying out the typed text, it or in several other languages ​​that mail.ru-mail supports, as well as for express checking it for errors. It won't be redundant.

  4. All messages and attachments in Mail.ru pass through virus check with the help of Kasperych, and all links included in letters are analyzed for reliability using the WOT service, which I already mentioned in the description.
  5. Some may like the ability to activate and configure free SMS sending to your mobile phone when messages arrive in a specific folder of your email. All this is connected in the settings (there is a link to them at the top of the window on the right) in the SMS notifications section:


  6. If I'm not mistaken, this system did not previously have correspondence collector from mailboxes of other popular services (Gmail, Yandex mail, etc.), but there was only the possibility of sending correspondence to them. So, now such an opportunity has arisen. It is available from the settings in the “Mail from other mailboxes” section:

  7. Well, lastly, I would like to recommend going to the password and security settings to indicate your mobile number, if you haven’t already, or at least enter an additional E-mail, which will allow you to quickly recover a lost or stolen password. With static, it will also be possible to bind to this IP:


Good luck to you! See you soon on the pages of the blog site
