535899 - Email alias for mozillians.org

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

Description

[Tom Ellins [:TMZ]]

We need a email alias for mozillians.org's default "from" address. 
Something like [e-mail] would be great. 

Jay, Gerv, ideas?

That sounds fine. But it must be a valid address even if it's called no-reply; many mail systems, mine included, will reject mail if it comes From: an address which doesn't accept incoming mail. (They look up the MX record for the From address and ask the SMTP server if it's valid.)

May I recommend "[e-mail]" or "[e-mail]" instead?

If that doesn't fly... we can just make [e-mail] an alias for which a few people can be added to track incoming email.

If we are going to pay attention to replies, it shouldn't be called no-reply :-) In that case, [e-mail] seems like a fine choice.

If we are not going to pay attention to replies, let's use no-reply, but not add anyone to the alias.

my vote would be no-reply with no one on the list.

there will be other contact points... so let's not create extra noise from automated messages.

This sort of has to go hand in hand with the prod push, right now mozillians.org isn't even live DNS wise.

Marking this INCOMPLETE for now, reopen when we actually have stuff to do here.
