Just like an Internet site address, e-mail also has a special arrangement.
The order of e-mail addresses is as follows.
NAME@DOMAIN.COM
The above arrangement describes the following.
- name: the name of the e-mail owner.
- @: read at mean at.
- Domain.com: the name of the e-mail service provider's site.
Here are some examples of the arrangement of e-mail addresses.
- rozizen@telkom.com, which means e-mail rozizen in Telkom
- budi80@yahoo.com, meaning e-mail budi on yahoo site !.
Just like the naming rules of an internet site address, an e-mail address has several rules of preparation.
An e-mail address owned by a person must be unique, so it should not match exactly the e-mail address of others.
E-mail addresses may use letters or be combined with numbers. Some common e-mail users use an underscore, such as rozi_2007.
E-mail addresses may not be separated by spaces, such as rozi 2007.
The mention and writing of e-mail addresses must conform to the above order. Just as in mail delivery, if we mistyped the e-mail address then it is likely that the e-mail message will be sent to the wrong receiver or even can not be sent.
When creating an e-mail address on an e-mail service, we are asked to set the name according to our taste, as long as it does not violate the rules for the preparation of e-mail address, and has not been used by others. However, we can change the domain name behind the @ sign.
