To me the analogy is, in the olden days, a company sending you postal mail in care of the local post office, the PO sending you a post card that something has arrived, and you having to go to the PO and show your identification to retrieve the item. No one would have tolerated that situation; why do we tolerate it on the Internet?
This is a GREAT analogy. You're absolutely right. Basically, the fora require you to open a browser/tab, log in, and only *then* can you read your message.
With email, it's passive. It comes in, you scan the subject, and decide what to do - discard, read, respond, or archive. No hoops to jump through, and you don't have to open another app to deal with it.
