What Is My Email Address? How to Find Out

What's my email? The steps you take to find out what email address people see when you email them depend on the service or email program you use. Below are general instructions as well as specific instructions for popular email providers.

General Instructions for Finding Your Email Address

The easiest way to identify your email address in almost any desktop program or online email client is to start writing a new message. Here's how:

1. Start a new email message. This usually works by selecting a Compose, New, or Write button.

2. Look for a line that begins with From. It contains your email address.

3. If you have more than one email address configured for sending, they usually show up as menu choices in the From line when you compose an email. All the email addresses listed are yours. You can use any of them.

Use an Echo Service to See Your Email Address

An echo service is another way to see what email address you're using. This method is typically used to test whether your email is working properly, but as an added bonus, part of the response you receive includes your email address. Here's how this works:

1. Compose a new email and enter echo@univie.ac.at in the To field. No subject line or message is necessary.

2. Select Send.

3. Wait for the automated response. The recipient line says Echo and the subject line says Automatic Response from echo@univie.ac.at.

4. Open the email and scroll down a bit until you see the Received section. In there is a line like this that shows your email address:

   (envelope-from <youremail@example.com>)
   

Other methods can be used to find your email but they vary depending on the service you use.
