This sort of looks promising: https://support.google.com/a/answer/2640542?hl=en

We may be able to get GSA's google admins to automatically bounce back anything sent to 10x@gsa.gov that doesn't come from .gov or .mil - do we think that would fulfill this requirement if we can go this route? cc @carodew @thisisdano

Hmm – I think it might, but it might also go too far, as I imagine we might want certain members of the public to get in touch with the program for non idea-submission things. Although this is something we should keep in our back pocket if we can't find a better solution – I could see something like setting up a separate email account ( something like 10x-ideas@gsa.gov or similar) that we only use for submissions that could have the bounciness applied) but still leave the 10x@gsa.gov email open so members of the public/journalists/feds using their personal emails (not that that ever happens) can still contact the program?

So I'd suggest we do what I suggest above and have one email for general contact us type stuff, and one email that is just for submitting ideas that we restrict to .gov and .mil email addresses. I did read in the info above that we can customize the bounce message so it doesn't necessarily need to be a confusing user experience.

Either way – we need to decide this week on what we're doing.

Note: next round of pitches is FAS only, could be relevant. Perhaps only need Google form
