There's no distinction between "primary" and "secondary", that's 
between the two of you. I can help too if you wish.

Correct.

Yes.

Here are some excerpts from the announcement Abe sent (I've changed 
dialogue to oe and done a little editing). Feel free to use some or 
all of this, or edit as you see fit.

==============
The topica oe list is about to be closed.  It will no longer be
available for conversations and/or other messages.

Shortly you will find your email has been subscribed to the new 
listserv oe at wedgeblade.net which replaces the old
oe at igc.topica.com.  You will know the list migration has
happened when you get a welcome message from the new list.  The 
welcome message has useful information, so consider saving it or 
printing it out.

After you get the welcome message, please use the new address
oe at wedgeblade.net to post messages to the list. You use the new
listserv the same way as the old oe list.  There will be no ads, and 
there will be a short description to remind you how the new list 
works.  

Anyone desiring to unsubscribe from the new list has the opportunity 
to do so. You will be able to manage the status of the subscription 
yourself, but if you have any questions or need help, just send an 
email to oe-owner at wedgeblade.net.
