Information on this page is intended for the Tech Team.

Email Accounts

  • STAR's emails are managed via admin.google.com/standrewsradio.com
  • STAR has a G Suite legacy account (i.e. created before December 2012), allowing the creation of unlimited free accounts, each with 15GB of storage.
    • We started using G Suite around May 2008 (citation needed)
  • Email addresses for committee members should follow [email protected].
  • There are also multiple groups, e.g. news@, music@, programming@, and hello@. Committee members can be added to groups to receive emails sent to the group. Emails cannot be sent from a group address.
  • Both users and groups may have aliases, e.g. bo@ redirects to manager@.
  • The invalid user account, *@, will catch any emails sent to non-existent addresses within our domain. This is useful for unlocking old STAR pages connected to long-departed committee members.

Stream URLs

Domains

  • STAR also owns standrewsradio.co.uk; it should simply redirect to the main site.
  • Domains are managed by Rachel Hughes, Union Design & Marketing Manager ([email protected])
  • The rapid.standrewsradio.com subdomain was associated with RapidSwitch; STAR moved from RapidSwitch to DigitalOcean in 2019, so no rapid. URLs should now be in use.
