How to use CEA position based group distributions lists
Last Updated 10 months ago

This guide will show you show you how to use email aliases for roles and group distributions
lists.

All Staff / All Cadets Distribution Lists
Emails can be sent to All Staff at a unit: allstaff.{UnitAbbreviation}@airforcecadets.gov.au
email address. For example, to send an email to All Staff @ XWG (including sub units), you
would use: allstaff.Xwg@airforcecadets.gov.au.

To restrict an All Staff email to only members of the unit specified (not sub units), you would
append “.aafc” to the email alias. For example, allstaff.Xwg.aafc@airforcecadets.gov.au.

Emails sent to All Cadets at a unit: allcadets.{UnitAbbreviation}@airforcecadets.gov.au. For
example: allcadets.XXXsqn@airforcecadets.gov.au.

Removing the “staff” or “cadets” gives you an email distribution list for all members at the
unit/sub units. For example: all.Xwg@airforcecadets.gov.au would send the email to all
members of XWG both Staff and Cadets.

Positional Email Addresses
You can also send emails to specific position holders. See below some examples:

  • co.XXXsqn@airforcecadets.gov.au – Commanding Officer, xxx Squadron
  • perso.Xwg@airforcecadets.gov.au – Personnel Officer, X Wing
  • sot.Xwg@airforcecadets.gov.au – Staff Officer Training, X Wing
There are also distributions lists for positions. See below some examples:

  • all.co.Xwg@airforcecadets.gov.au – All Commanding Officers in X Wing
  • all.trgo.Xwg@airforcecadets.gov.au – All Training Officers in X Wing
Emails sent to distribution lists will need to be cleared through the Mail Moderation process in CEA.

Contact your Wing ICTSO for further information: ictso.Xwg@airforcecadets.gov.au
