DrumPoint.org E-mail Address

Drum Point Flotilla members may request a DrumPoint.org email address. It’s free. The member can use the on-line web based email or download messages using an email client program like Outlook.

A flotilla email address allows the member to send email without having to use a personal email account. A DrumPoint.org e-mail address can be displayed on this website when the member chooses, so the public can contact the member directly without the member using a personal email address. The privacy of the member is protected and the organizational image of the flotilla is improved.

These addresses also allow the flotilla to maintain informational email addresses as required. Informational addresses in accounts that are checked by an assigned member(s) of the flotilla on a regular basis.  Any FSO that needs a special email address created for a promotional purpose, as an example, may do so. DrumPoint.org addresses can be used on printed materials, business cards,  and notices thus presenting a professional appearance. The member does not have to use their personal email address. You keep flotilla communication separate from family communication.
