Group E-Mail Address

Group E-Mail Address

2001-07-29 by mwesley250@earthlink.net

Unfortunately changing the e-mail address to something of a more 
reasonable length caused the URL of the group to change. Since I have 
sent out numerous announcements that contain that URL I have gone 
back to the original overly long e-mail address:

DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com

to make sure the people we notified can find the group.

I will look for a better solution and I appologize for the confusion. 
Please bear with this novice moderator here.

Thanks,

Martin Wesley

I suggest sort of keeping both for a while. Here are a couple of
suggestions for transitioning:

Subscribe the email to the long name as a member to the short name
list. Set the group up on the long name to not allow new posts. Post a
message there forwarding folks to the short name.

I think that should take care of things. After some time, you can
simply remove the one with the long name.
