What is an email address, and how is it different from email?
After this, you will know the difference between an email address and email itself.
An email address is your personal mailbox name online. It looks like yourname@gmail.com. Messages come to that address.
Email is the message itself, the note you send or read. The address is where it goes. One is the mailbox, one is the letter.
You will often type your email address to sign in to sites. ChatGPT asks for it when you make your free account. It is safe to give.

Your email address always has an @ sign in the middle. That little symbol is the easy way to spot one.
