**What’s PEC?**\
Certified E-Mail (PEC) is a webmail system with legal value that states the transmission of digital documents.

Sapienza University PEC can only receive e-mails sent from another PEC e-mail. E-mail sent from different mailboxes will be automathically rejected.

Sapienza University PEC [protocollosapienza@cert.uniroma1.it](http://protocollosapienza@cert.uniroma1.it) (link sends e-mail) **is only for communication sent to the Administrative Office** and can’t be emploied to send and receive PEC for other Sapienza structures (faculties, departments etc).

Requests for PEC recipients different from the Administrative Office can be sent with regular e-mail at the Public Relations and Information Office e-mail [urp@uniroma1.it](http://urp@uniroma1.it) (link sends e-mail); or to the HELLO Centre for Students Orientation [hello@uniroma1.it](http://hello@uniroma1.it) (link sends e-mail).

**Achievements**

In addition to the e-mail boxes, it started for a limited number of users, the testing of an internal certified e-mail service for communication between students and universities.

Its naming is structured as follows: [surname.matriculationnumber@pec.studenti.uniroma1.it](mailto:surname.matriculationnumber@pec.studenti.uniroma1.it).

The access credentials are those the students have for their regular university mailbox. \
Internal PEC e-mails for students are still being tested.
