One of the things about a moderator adding an email address, or using the
automatic subscribe option, is that you end up with two separate accounts
for the group, so you will get email to each of those addresses.
If you would find it easier to have one account that accepts multiple email
address from you when you want to send messages, but sends just one email to
you in response, here's how to go about it:

Go to http://groups.yahoo.com/
You will probably have to sign in to your yahoo account with your yahoo
username and password.
Once you've done this on the Left-hand side of the screen you will see a
list of your groups.
Click on the group you want to change.
(If you want to just change coryphaeus, then shortcut these steps and go
directly to http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/coryphaeus/ . I'm just
giving the full rigmarole for those who may need the information for
elsewhere, or if something goes wrong with the shortcut option.)

Just above the name of the group you will see your username, your email
address, your group status and then an option to Edit your membership.
Click on Edit your membership.

This will take you a page that identifies which yahoo profile you are using
for the group, and an option for email addresses. There is an option to add
a new email address, and you can also select which of your multiple email
addresses you want to use for receiving.

Hope this helps.
