It comes down to who is the target group.

Average KDE / KDEPIM users?  There's hope they can be enlightened ;-) to 
learn about what F/OSS is, what KDE is about, that everybody can help (it 
doesn't take much technical expertise to help with translations for example, 
and if somebody is a bit modest and knows his limits, triaging bug reports 
is probably always needed and also doesn't require years of programming 
experience: if only to close old bugs that are long fixed.)

Of course, if the target group is "people who are likely to want to help 
KDEPiM", it's a different question.  But isn't that preaching to the choir?  
People who *want* to help KDEPIM basically only need to be told the mailing 
list address.  (Ok, again, I'm oversimplifying to the extreme to get my 
point across...)

cheers

The conundrum is not in which email, but in how many users. The number of
users would be inversely proportional to the question of, 'which email', and
could then likely be regurgitated as, 'what email', or so to speak. Since
the question of how many users bring us to the inevitable query of the email
itself, you have to start counting each user twice, and sometimes thrice in
order to come to a more accurate conclusion about what email.
