A communication that informs recipients about the alteration of an individual’s or organization’s electronic mail contact point. It typically includes the previous electronic mail address, the updated electronic mail address, and often, a period during which both addresses will be active to ensure a seamless transition. For instance, a user who switches from “oldaddress@example.com” to “newaddress@example.com” would disseminate this communication.
This notification is crucial for maintaining uninterrupted communication channels. It benefits both the sender and receiver by preventing misdirected messages and ensuring timely delivery of important information. Historically, such notifications were often delivered via postal mail; however, with the prevalence of electronic communication, electronic distribution has become the standard, enabling faster and more efficient dissemination of the updated contact information. This ensures business continuity, maintains client relationships, and supports efficient internal communications.
