Set up email address for enquiries

The contact email address on your area, faculty or department webpages should be generic rather than a person's name. Enquiries sent to an area, faculty or department email address are more easily forwarded to the appropriate person or people, whose role it is to respond to the enquiries promptly. The use of a person's email address on webpages is discouraged in case that person may go on leave or their responsibilities change.

A web-specific email address SHOULD NOT be used. For example, do not use:

webmaster.science@adelaide.edu.au

People who maintain or were the last to modify webpages should use the same email address as mentioned for ALL enquiries that several authorised staff can retrieve. For example:

alumni@adelaide.edu.au

Please note that a contact email address may not be streamlined beyond the department level. For example, the following email address is authorised:

publichealth@adelaide.edu.au

But an email address of the level below is NOT authorised:

postgraduate@medicine.adelaide.edu.au

For more information about gaining a generic email address, please email The ITS Helpdesk or phone 33000.
