create 1 en
  1. In the pop-up window, continue by selecting an e-mail address in the <username>@cvut.cz form (e.g. vanekfer@cvut.cz) and confirm by pressing the Create button.
create 2 en
Caution:

Students of faculty programs are required to communicate with the school only from the e-mail address corresponding to the faculty domain, i.e. @fit.cvut.cz. Therefore, we ask that you set up the address @fit.cvut.cz according to the instructions in Preferred e-mail address. You can optionally use other addresses offered (e.g. @student.cvut.cz) as delivery aliases, but the preferred address should always be the one from the faculty domain.

Once the request is submitted, the mailbox will be created within the next day (or a few hours) of the request. You will not be automatically notified when your mailbox is ready to use. If your mailbox is not accessible in 2 days after submitting a request, please contact us at ServiceDesk.

To access your mailbox, you can use the Outlook web app by logging in with your Microsoft university account. You can also use one of the supported mail clients to access your mailbox.

The addresses created are aliases only, so you receive e-mail at all addresses listed in E-mail address settings in Usermap marked as Receiving. Your e-mail account is always maintained under a login name in the form <username>@cvut.cz. You can set the sending address in the Usermap application by setting it as preferred.
