I have been trying to hook up an og forum to an email address such that subscribers (e.g. group members) can communicate via mail. What is the right setup for this ?

Originally I added two default commands to the new mailbox:

tid:
og: []

but that didn't appear to have any effect (the mail would end up as a blog entry).

Setting

type: forum

made the mail end up in a forum topic, however, it didn't show up in my desired
og forum. What am I missing ?

Thanks,

Is mailhandler a module? I have no idea. Can anyone else here help?

Yes, mailhandler is a module. However, I'm not quite sure the problem is there.
I found this:

http://drupal.org/node/67038

which looks related, and, AFAIU, which suggests a fix inside the OG code.
(Apparently things broke between drupal 4.6 and drupal 4.7, which the patch
fixes. No such patch seems to exist for drupal 5, which I'm using.)

After reading the link you gave (and some other stuff as well) it looks to be an OG problem as you surmise. I'm closing it here.
