What is my email address at Strahov?
Please take a look at 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 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 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
- Reading incoming mail from username@faculty.cvut.cz
- POP3: felis.feld.cvut.cz (or FSICD1, KPS1 atd.)
- SMTP: 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
Notes:
- nowhere in configuration would appear e.g. max.feld.cvut.cz or any other SMTP server than your main block server.
- on none of the mentioned servers is set any parameter, these are all standard services POP3 and 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 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 IMAP, which is the state of art way of accessing to mailbox from any computer. Protocol IMAP can be enhanced with SSL encryption.
