Dan,

Which should I print in my handout, and will both still work?

Either will work.

I wasn't actually certain that [email protected] would still work, but I tested it and it does. The original posting address ([email protected]) is automatically redirected to the new format, but I wasn't certain about all of the email commands (like +subscribe).

I think it would be best to use the new format in your handout.

My reason is that the new (subdomain) format is how they'll see the group email addresses written on the group's web site (specifically the home page), and in messages they receive in email. So it would probably be less confusing for them if you use it consistently from the get-go.

Note that "main" is something you can change, if there's another name for the primary group that would make more sense.

For example, in my PTA group I changed the primary group to "members" because the primary group is open to all PTA unit members; whereas the subgroups are things like board, teachers, administration, and some ad-hoc ones for various volunteer efforts. As a mnemonic, sending a message to [email protected] provides the reminder that such messages are delivered to all of the (participating) unit members.
