Some services that the Guild suported on its own server have now been transferred to MemberMojo. Although most services that were provided are broadly replicated by MemberMojo there are some differences in how they operate and the addresses used.
This page will be updated the system has settled down and the old services are switched off.
The Guild provides e-mail services and website hosting for all of its branches who wish to use them. This website is hosted on the ODG server, and the Branch provides full e-mail services using standard addresses, described below. For general information, see the Guild FAQ page .
If you know of any changes of e-mail address or any new addresses please inform the Branch Postmaster
These addresses relate to a post rather than a person, and they do not change even if the person holding the post changes. That makes them easier to remember, and also avoids disclosing personal e-mail addresses. The addresses uses a prefix in front of @sdb.odg.org.uk . There are two types of address:
Address type | Message goes to | Restrictions | Who can post | Prefix |
---|---|---|---|---|
Officer | A particular officer (or officers if a post is shared) | No | Anyone | See list of officers |
Tower | The correspondent of a particular tower | No | Anyone | See list on towers page |
There are six mailing lists for different groups within the Branch. The address for each is a prefix before @sdb.odg.org.uk
