Email Address Naming Standards and Implementation Guidance
Publication Summary
The Australian Government Information Management Office (AGIMO) within the Department of Finance and Deregulation, on behalf of the Business Process Transformation Committee, has developed the Australian Government Email Address Naming Standards that:
- present a consistent image of government accessibility
- are intuitive to use
- provide a simple way to find or determine email addresses of Australian Government employees
The three standards are as follows:
- Published personal email addresses
- Managing Duplicates
- Functional Addresses
Guidance material for display names, domain names and responding to misdirected emails has been developed as part of the email address naming standards.
The standards provide a common approach to email addressing. Agencies are expected to comply with the standards.
