Community emails under @polkadot.com

1

Hi everyone,

I want to raise a point about how our local communities manage communications. Right now each community uses different email addresses on different domains. These are often meant as contact points for local institutions, companies, or other communities. It works, but it makes our communication look fragmented and not clearly tied to Polkadot.

A shared approach would help us look more aligned and professional. One idea is to set up official addresses under @polkadot.com.

For example:

This would give each community a clear link to the brand.

The open questions are:

  • Who should manage these accounts?

  • How should access be assigned?

  • What process should we follow if a community lead changes?

  • Should there be a central team that supports this?

I would like to hear your views and see if we can design a simple process that works for everyone.

Hi TWR;

Good question and suggestion.

At Distractive, we manage the domain, while W3F owns it. But due to security reasons, we can’t use it for e-mails. I can check what the exact concerns are, and then it might we might be able to discuss how to mitigate those risks.

I can investigate where the responsibility lies for managing and issuing such emails under a different domain, such as @polkadot-countryABC.com.
