E-mail Address

Should Community Council Office Bearers have generic email addresses? eg. If the CC have their own domain – secretary@anytowncommunitycouncil.co.uk or anytownchair@gmail.com if not.

    Outlook is a better option than gmail if you don't have your own domain. Also, it is important never to insert an email as text online in a webpage such as SAC because internet bots can find the email and send spam to it. It should be inserted as an image file, not text. I am annoyed that our email is written into the code of the SAC website (i.e. text) instead of being an image.

      Definitely. A CC domain would also allow all committee members to set up a specific CC email, simplifying email management, and facilitating protection of private data.

        This avoids previous Chairs being inappropriately sent emails intended for the current Chair and also reduces any infringement of personal emails and details. Ensures that important information does not 'go missing' and avoids need to inform agencies etc of change of personnel.
        Improves transparency.
