How to delete email if you forgot your password

It happens that you need to destroy a mailbox from which you do not remember the login information - login and password. In this case, you first need to try to restore access to your profile.

The first thing you need to know is the exact mail address. After all, the address can either end with @mail.ru or with other endings: @list.ru, @inbox.ru or @bk.ru. And these will be different Mailboxes.

In addition, if you mix up just one letter or number in the name before the @ sign, it will also be a different mailbox - not yours.


Example of an email address

And the second thing you need to know is the exact password. It consists exclusively of English letters; numbers may be used. The size of the letters (large or small) also matters.

Without a password, you cannot delete your page on Mail, so you will need to recover it first. To do this, in the login window on the site, click “Forgot your password?” and follow the instructions.

Read more about restoring access in the lesson “My mail".

What to do if you can’t restore the box? Then you just need to wait: when the address is not used for more than six months, the administration has the right to destroy it.

If you haven't used the mailbox in a while and can't log into it, it's most likely already deleted.

It's easy to check: send a letter to your old email. If you receive a notification about an undelivered message, it means the mailbox is closed. It simply no longer exists in the system.

Or you can try to register this address. If such a username is available, then the mailbox has been automatically deleted.

Is it possible to restore mail?

You can only return the box within three months after it was closed. But everything that was in it will be irretrievably destroyed. Deleted emails and files cannot be recovered.

To restore deleted mail, you just need to open the mail.ru website and indicate in the login window correct address and password.

The box will open without any problems on the part of the system (you won’t even need confirmation), but it will be empty.

Alternative to deletion

Deleting mail is a very important step. After all, all letters and services are immediately erased along with it. This is not always suitable, and now I will tell you about more gentle ways to deal with your address.

Exit from the box

Sometimes a person just needs to close the box specific device. For example, you went to your personal mail on your work computer. And now every time you log into the mail.ru website, the mailbox opens automatically.

To prevent this from happening, you just need to get out account. Then the mail will remain in the system, but this computer it will no longer load automatically.

To log out of your mail on your computer, open the mail.ru website and in the login form, click on the door icon.

Forwarding letters

It often happens that a person has not used mail on Mile for a long time: he has a different address on another site. But before he left his old box to different people. And I don’t really want to delete it in case one of them writes.

Or it happens that you don’t want to delete mail on mail.ru, because all sorts of necessary services are attached to it. For example, you have registered Skype, a page on a social network, or a profile on a dating site. And if you close your mailbox, you may lose access to these services.

In this case, instead of deleting, it is better to set up email forwarding. Then, when a message arrives at the old address, it will be redirected to the new one. And it doesn’t matter what site the new address is on: Yandex, Google (gmail.com) or some other.

1 . We go to the mailbox on mail.ru, from which we need to redirect letters. Click on its address in the upper right corner. From the list, select “Mail Settings”.

3. Click on the “Add forwarding” button.

4 . Specify the address to which letters should be forwarded and click “Save”.

6. After this, the transfer is added, but for it to start working, it needs to be confirmed. To do this, click on the appropriate link and follow the instructions.

If everything is done correctly, the “Confirmed” mark will appear in the “Filtering Rules”. But besides this, you will also need to set the switch to “ON” - just click on it.

That's all! Now all letters will be automatically redirected to another address. If desired, this setting can be turned off at any time.

If you do not receive a confirmation email, check your Spam folder. For me, for example, it ended up exactly there.

Filtration

If you decide to leave Mail because you are receiving unwanted emails (spam), then this can be resolved through filtering. Simply mark those messages that you would not like to receive, click on the “More” button and select “Create a filter” from the list.

Or you can even select the “Delete forever” option. The main thing is not to forget to save the settings and check that this filter is marked “ON”.

Conclusion

  • To close a mailbox, you need to know its exact address and password. This data can be recovered. Or you can just wait - in six months the post office will most likely close on its own.
  • In addition to deleting, there are other ways to get rid of the mailbox: forwarding letters, filtering. And if you just need to remove it from someone else’s computer, click on “exit” in the right top corner site.
  • You can return a deleted mailbox, but only within three months after it was closed. After 90 days it will be completely erased, beyond the possibility of recovery.

Unlike most resources on the Internet, which do not provide the ability to manually delete an account from the database, you can deactivate your email account yourself. This procedure has several features, and in the course of this article we will consider all of them.

We will consider only the four most popular services in Russia, the peculiarity of each of which is its direct connection with some other projects within the framework of one resource. Because of this, often deleting mail will not cause account deactivation, which in turn will help you restore the mailbox if necessary.

Note: Any email recovery tool allows you to return only the address and the mailbox itself, while emails existing at the time of deletion will not be returned.

Gmail

IN modern world a large number of people regularly use the services of Google, whose website account is directly linked to the Gmail email service. Its deletion can be done either separately from the main account or by deactivating the profile completely, automatically disabling all services associated with it. Deletion can only be done with full access, if necessary confirming with a phone number.

Before deactivating your mail separately or together with your account, we recommend that you do backups chains of letters, which we mentioned in the instructions at the link provided above. This will allow you not only to save letters, but also to transfer them to another mailbox, including services not associated with Google. However, any settings and subscriptions will still be reset.

Mail.ru

Neither you nor other users will be able to borrow a remote email address. But at the same time, you can restore by logging into the Mail.ru website using your account data. All information that was in your mail and related services will not be restored.

Yandex Mail

By analogy with postal Gmail service, email on Yandex.Mail you can deactivate it separately from the rest of your account. This will allow you to leave such important services as Yandex.Passport and Yandex.Money intact. To delete, you will have to go to the page with the mailbox parameters and use the link "Delete". After this, confirmation of actions will be required.

Even after deletion, the mailbox can be restored by authorization using the appropriate data. However, you can also use account deactivation on the Yandex website, which will allow you to permanently get rid of not only mail, but also other information on various related services. This procedure cannot be rolled back, which is why you should treat it with great caution.

Rambler/mail

Just like creating a mailbox on the Rambler/mail website, deleting it is done without special problems. This action is irreversible, that is, it cannot be restored. Moreover, along with the letters, all information specified and assigned to you on other Rambler&Co projects will be automatically deleted.

  1. Go to your account on the Rambler website, be it mail or any other related service. Click on the photo in the upper right corner and select "My profile".
  2. Using the panel on the left side of the page, select « Social media» or manually scroll to the bottom of the content.

  3. After you are redirected to the deactivation page, we recommend that you carefully read all the warnings of the service and only then proceed with deletion.
  4. On a page within a block “Attention, along with the Rambler&Co ID profile will be deleted” Place a check mark next to each item. If you check only a few of them, deletion will not be possible.
  5. In the block below “Confirm deletion of all data” Enter your account password and go through verification. Next you should press the button "Delete all data".
  6. In the window that opens, confirm deactivation by pressing "Delete".

    If the deletion is successful, you will receive a corresponding notification, which will automatically close within 10 seconds and redirect you to home page resource.

We have looked at all the important aspects of deleting mail on the Rambler website and we hope we have helped you understand how this procedure is performed. If something doesn't work out, let us know in the comments.
