Cricket Leinster Club eMail Accounts
In future all Leinster Cricket Clubs can be contacted by eMail through a new [club-name]@cricketleinster.ie domain address. It is hoped that these new arrangements will make it easier for clubs to communicate with each other without having to remember or search out current e/mail addresses.
For clubs there are two ways in which this can work. The simplest is to use the new address for receiving e/mails only. This is the default setting and will allow e/mails to be auto-forwarded to the main existing e/mail address used by the club [usually the Club Secretary]. Clubs who are happy with the above arrangements don’t need to do anything until such time as they want to change their own e/mail address. If clubs wish to add additional addresses to forward mail to this can also be done.
Clubs who would like to use the new address both to receive and send mail from the @cricketleinster.ie address can set up an account on their PC, Mac, ipad, iphone etc. or can access their account through internet webmail. Details of how all this works is set out the Services section.
To make sure everything is working properly each club will be sent a test e/mail and you are asked to confirm receipt.
In future all official communications to clubs from the LCU will be through this new channel. This hopefully will significantly reduce the risk of important notices being delayed or not being received because personnel [and e/mail addresses] have changed within clubs and have not been updated. It will also provide Secretaries of Clubs who use personal e/mail addresses with an additional layer of anonymity and will allow for cover in the event that the Secretary does not have access to e/mails for a time.
There is no extra cost to clubs in setting up the new arrangements.
