Yeah, I completely agree - but that wasn't my intention to try to convince. I would like additional topics that mirror those in the mailing lists setup on discourse. That way people can use whichever they want. The one that people prefer will win. Simple as that.

This is just due to your configuration. You could easily either save the
mailing list to your mailbox, or use an NNTP gateway.
Different people have different work flows, you like to go to Discourse, others prefer mail/nntp. For a lot of people (including myself) the lack of threading is a show stopper for their workflow.The mail interface in Discourse is...lacking a lot of features for a lot of people. Your comment "why is that so hard to understand" applies both ways..../Louis
