Answer / Solution
Every email address is unique and made up of three parts designed to tell the Internet how to route the mail so that it reaches your inbox.
A valid email address is an address composed of a username and a domain name. Here, four parts for an email address which include the username, an @ symbol, domain name, a dot, and the domain.
The first part of an email address is the user name, which identifies you personally on the mail server that you use and the last part of the email address is the domain that comes right after the at sign.
Username
Each user name on a server must be different and consists of letters, numbers or special characters such as underscores or periods.
@ Symbol
The symbol "@", called the "at" symbol, connects the user name of an email address to the mail server, or domain. It tells the Internet that your user name can be found at that domain.
Domain Name
The domain name in an email address appears after the @ symbol and identifies the Internet domain that handles your email. It can be further broken down into two parts: the name of the computer or server that handles the mail and the top-level domain, often "com," "gov" or "edu," etc.
For example info@ekgurukul.com.
