Member Email

Home


    If you are a Board Member, Chairperson of a Committee, or a member who has Specialty Knowledge about specific Orchid species and/or problems, you may want to have your own Central Florida Orchid Society Email Address for Free!  You can even have your new CFOS Email address automatically forward your CFOS incoming email to your own private personal email address.  This means you don't have to check another email address!  It can be linked to your existing personal email address.  This is simply called "Mail Forwarding".

    Please email Doug Sinning directly to get your Free CFOS Email Address Today!  In the email, please identify yourself, and what your title is, if any.  You should also include your choice of a 6-8 character password for your email account.  The characters can include numbers and letters.  If you would like your new CFOS incoming email forwarded to your already existing personal email address, please include that email address in your request.

    Your email address will follow a specific format, which will be the initial of your first name, followed by a "dot", followed by your last name in full, and then @cflorchidsociety.org.

    For example:  Frank Dasse would be:      f.dasse@cflorchidsociety.org

        Frank's "Username" would be:   f.dasse
