I prefer 'John.Doe at your dot home dot domain'.

Maybe not better, but what I'd like to see is the use of
Listar or Mailman and the list being hosted by the same site
which hosts the archives. The list needs a moderator, and we
could moderate all messages from non-subscribers (I don't
think they're being accepted, which is really bad).

I suggested moving the list to Savannah.

BTW, the HTML archives for November / December / January are
still missing...

Anyway, I like your proposition.
