I think it's also about control: Web based content can easily be
deleted by moderators - whereas emails sent via a mailing list to
their subscribers can stay in users' inboxes forever.
Remember all these past years when we were asked every now and then
to
"behave", to respect some "code of conduct"? If we're not nice in the
future, our messages can just be deleted from the web interface.
People who interact with the forum via email will still have their own
copies. [ ... ]
Does that mean that despite "Discourse" the current mailinglist system,
that is, sending mail to the list and receiving them back *together*
with possible answers in some thread - will be kept working?
Except the messages of those who interact via only the Web interface
("Discourse") won't be ending in my email inbox anymore? Is that
correct?
Thanks in anticipation
Wolfgang
