895624 - Replace "contact us" email in footer to [e-mail]

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Webmaker Graveyard :: webmaker.org, defect)

Description

[Cassie McDaniel [:cassiemc]]

Currently the contact us links to "[e-mail]". While this is being routed through to the correct recipients, the address is confusing: why have it in the webmaker footer if Maker Party is a campaign that will end after the summer? Users may question whether Webmaker is the parent brand, or at the very least, confuse the two.

Therefore I suggest creating a new email - e.g. "[e-mail]" that auto-forwards to [e-mail].

Brett, who needs to be pinged for this to happen?

Reference bug 879825 for the original 'update email address' bug.

Cassie, you can just file a service now request:
mozilla.service-now.com

IT requests go there!

My only question is that I'm not sure if [e-mail] is itself an alias, so not sure if instead it should be forwarded to people who that address forwards to.

Jbuck's handling this at the moment in bug #916462

In the meantime, can anybody think of other places on the web where a prompt to write to [e-mail] might still live and need to be changed? (wiki pages etc.)

Now have [e-mail] set up so lets change the "Contact Us" to point to that address since Maker Party is over.

That should hold us until [e-mail] is setup via bug #916462
