===What is my email address at Strahov?===
Please take a look at [http://dusps.sh.cvut.cz/personal/ http://dusps.sh.cvut.cz/personal/], where you could find the desired information.

===How do I set my mail client (e.g. Outlook, Netscape, Thunderbird)? I would like to receive mail from my school email and also from freemail, strahov's mailbox.===
Basic thing, that you should know, is that you can freely receive emails from anywhere, port [#zkratky-pop3 POP3] (110) and port [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to IMAP?|IMAP]] isn't limited in any way on Strahov. Sending is restricted, because of past disuse for spamming purposes, in the following way:
# From strahov net it is possible to send mail only from '''registered addresses''', which have the form  - *@sh.cvut.cz , where character * means registered name (e.g. in the form N.Surname).
# All mails, that you send out to the world must pass trough server mail.sh.cvut.cz, which is the central mail-server. Related servers on blocks connect to this central mailserver. In consequence you should set the [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to SMTP?|SMTP]] server in your mail client to the address of your block's main server.

For example, in case of clients as Outlook or Netscape we have three mail accounts:
# Reading incoming mail from N.Surname@sh.cvut.cz
#* [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to POP3?|POP3]]<nowiki>: </nowiki>''name_of_maildropu'' - Name of your maildropu tells you your admin at registration. In most cases it is the main block server.
#* [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to SMTP?|SMTP]]<nowiki>: </nowiki>''main block server''
#* e-mail address: '''N.Surname@sh.cvut.cz'''
#* username and password are those, you've chosen at registration.
# Reading incoming mail from username@faculty.cvut.cz
#* [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to POP3?|POP3]]<nowiki>: </nowiki>'''felis.feld.cvut.cz''' ''(or FSICD1, KPS1 etc.)''
#* [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to SMTP?|SMTP]]<nowiki>: </nowiki>''main block server''
#* e-mail address: '''N.Surname@sh.cvut.cz''' (this is the address, that is displayed in FROM field for sender and receiver of mail)
#* username and password is the one that you set on school's server
#* if you want to get the replies for school-mail to return back to school's server -- than set field Reply To: xyz@school_address.cvut.cz
# Reading mails from user@abcd.com
#* [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to POP3?|POP3]]<nowiki>: </nowiki>'''pop3.abcd.com''' ''(Only an example, the real settings of mail client you could find on pages of mail provider.)''
#* [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to SMTP?|SMTP]]<nowiki>: </nowiki>''main block server''
#* e-mail address: '''N.Surname@sh.cvut.cz'''
#* username and password -- which was set on the freemail server
#* optionally set Reply to: yyy@abcd.com

Notes:
# nowhere in configuration would appear e.g. max.feld.cvut.cz or any other [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to SMTP?|SMTP]] server than your main block server.
# on none of the mentioned servers is set any parameter, these are all standard services [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to POP3?|POP3]] and [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to SMTP?|SMTP]].
# When Server-FOO is out of order and forwarding is set to this mailserver, you should tell your admin to cancel the forwarding to this non-existing server.
# Service [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to POP3?|POP3]] send unencrypted password, when server does not support encryption -- in this case password can be caught on his way trough the net by a hacker. Support of encryption is called SSL and most of strahov's servers have this feature (e.g. logout). Most of strahov servers also offer connection via protocol [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to IMAP?|IMAP]], which is the state of art way of accessing to mailbox from any computer. Protocol IMAP can be enhanced with SSL encryption.

===I don't receive a single email, why?===
# No-one writes you a mail (life is cruel, sometimes it happens).
# All mails to address N.Surname@sh.cvut.cz and to your registered accounts are forwarded to a special address, called maildrop. This address is specified in user database (see [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to DUSPS?|DUSPS]]). Cause of the problem could be that you try to read mails from a non-registered mail address. Please, take a look at [http://dusps.sh.cvut.cz/personal/ Osobní stránku (Personal page, in Czech)], where there are all the essential information. It is recommended to set an account on your block's main server,  (list of them at [#hbs link]) and ask the admin to set up a maildrop there.

===I want to read my emails via my supermodern mobile phone, how can I set to do so?===
If your mobile supports WAP protocol, you can receive mail. Essential information for setup can be found at http://wap.sh.cvut.cz/ (only from mobile device).

===I want to get access to mail via web-browser? (As it is on freemail servers, such as yahoo.com.)===
Your mail can be viewed at: https://desitka.sh.cvut.cz/mail/ (pay attention to https, it ends with S, that means security). In this way you can read mail from all servers, that support protocol  [[FAQ/Slovníček pojmů#Co je to IMAP?|IMAP]], which are almost all strahov's mailservers.
