All users with an account have an e-mail address. These addresses consist of account names. For example: the email address for a student, whose number is 19970093, is 19970093@student.ciu.edu.tr. To access this service, the user must type https://sis.ciu.edu.tr in the address section of the web browser program (Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, etc.) on any computer connected to the Internet. It is enough for the user to write the user name and password on the incoming page and manage their e-mails. CIU also provides SMTP and POP3 support about e-mail for advanced users to use this service more efficiently. The required server name is mail.ciu.edu.tr. In order to change the CIU-NET passwords, users should click on the "Forgot Password" link at the bottom of the https://sis.ciu.edu.tr page, then the "Student" link and follow the instructions on the page that opens.

Message lists and Newsletter feeds provide easy communication via e-mail among people who are interested in a specific topic. The members of a message list are able to send and receive messages to other members. All messages that are sent to the list are distributed to all the members. An application form given to the CIU Computer Center Directorate is enough and necessary to create a new message list on any topic.
