An email address is a string of characters (letters, numbers, and/or symbols) that represents a destination to which an email message will be sent.
Most email addresses follow the format of username@domain.topleveldomain (TLD). This format is broken down as follows:
• Username: The username is the account name you choose when creating your email address. It can include letters, numbers, and periods (.), dashes (-), and underscores (_).
• Domain: The domain is the part of the email address after the “@” symbol. It represents the location of the email server where your messages for this specific email address will be processed.
• Top–level domain (TLD): The TLD is the “.com” or “.net” at the end of a domain name. It represents the type of organization associated with the email address (e.g., “.edu” addresses are associated with educational institutions).
