Use the address "metrics-alerts < AT > mozilla < PERIOD > org". <small><em>Note for first-time-releasers: your email will get held for moderator approval - that is expected. If it happens more than once, get help on <tt>#metrics</tt>.</em></small>

For 3.6.25 you would send
  Thunderbird,thunderbird,thunderbird,13.0,13.0
Firefox,firefox,firefox,3.6.25,3.6
  Firefox,firefox,firefox,3.6.26pre,3.6
 
For non-3.6 releases, we need to include Fennec in the email if we build Fennec.
 
For 9.0b2 it would be
Firefox,firefox,firefox,9.0b2,9.0
Fennec,firefox-mobile,fennec,9.0b2,9.0
 
And for 9.0 final it's
Firefox,firefox,firefox,9.0,9.0
Fennec,firefox-mobile,fennec,9.0,9.0
 
ESRs look like this:
Firefox,firefox,firefox,10.0.3,10.0
Firefox,firefox,firefox,10.0.3esr,10.0

==== Update verify ====
=== Major Update ===
Major update generation is not kicked off automatically. You should only create them once the final builds for the "latest" build are ready.
For instance, the 3.6.26 builds got created a week before the 10.0 release but the "final" 10.0 builds were not created after few days.
Follow instructions from the [[Release:Release_Automation_on_Mercurial:Documentation#Major_Update_.28Firefox_only.29|Major update]] documentation.
==== Major Update verify ====
=== Reset reserved slaves ===
=== Check permissions / AV scan ===
It is supposed to be triggered automatically after updates are done.
File a bug if it doesn't. <small>[[Release:Release_Automation_on_Mercurial:Documentation#Antivirus_check|details]]</small>
=== Push to internal mirrors ===
This is done by automation for rapid release betas. '''Note''': if you have to reconfig the release buildbot master in during the release, the uptake monitoring will fail ({{bug|629648}}). That means you'll need to manually send the "ready for releasetest" emails when you believe things are "good enough". Refer to a prior release for email details.
For other releases, this should be done manually at this point, after check permissions / AV scan have completed.
* Make sure the rsync excludes have been updated ([[Releases/BuildNotesTemplate#Edit_rsync_exclude_files]])
* Force build the push to mirrors builder. Make sure at least 15 minutes have elapsed since editing the rysnc module to give it time to sync out.

=== Going to Beta ===

NOTE: Remember to do this at least '''2 hours''' ahead of the expected "go to beta" email. <small>''[[Release:Release_Automation_on_Mercurial:Documentation#Prepare_for_Beta_Release_.28Firefox_only.29|details]]''</small>


Remember to ssh to aus3-staging using your short LDAP name and then run <code>sudo su - ffxbld</code> once on.  If you intend to use screen, initiate your screen session while you are still yourself.

==== Publish Fennec to the Play Store (for beta releases and release releases) ====
=====Push the files (for beta releases and release releases)=====
* Use [http://hg.mozilla.org/build/braindump/file/tip/releases-related/push_fennec.sh this script] and run it as ffxbld@stage (please push you changes prior to using it, and grab latest on stage via <tt>curl -O http://hg.mozilla.org/build/braindump/raw-file/tip/releases-related/push_fennec.sh</tt>)
=====Play Store (for beta releases and release releases)=====
'''IMPORTANT -''' Make sure to follow instructions!
* download multi apk (e.g. [http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/candidates/10.0b6-candidates/build1/android/multi/fennec-10.0b6.multi.android-arm.apk multi/fennec-10.0b6.multi.android-arm.apk])
* visit https://market.android.com/publish
* choose "Firefox Beta" or "Firefox"
* select the "APK Files" tab and choose "Upload APK"
** choose the multi apk that you downloaded and hit "upload"
*** NOTE: the progress bar does not seem to show progress (at least on Google Chrome)
** when it finishes uploading, verify VersionCode is the build date (almost anyway, the market reports an hour later than our buildID)
** hit "Save"
* activate new apk (You should see an Error message since both apk's are active)
* deactivate old apk (You should not see the Error message anymore)
* hit "Save"
* If this is a beta 1, go to "Product Details" tab -> Recent Changes, change the url to  http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/mobile/{VERSION}beta/releasenotes/
