If we switch to a different forum software package we might not need to drop the gateway. One example that I happen to be aware of: there is a site called Disqus which specializes in handling commentary for other sites. Their software emails out all posts on a topic to anyone who has subscribed to the topic; IMO this is a more important functionality than being able to post via email (which Disqus does not support AFAIK). I presume that it would be a fairly simple customization to maintain a single subscriber list for the entire forum rather than per-topic. I don't know whether the Disqus software is available, but if a commercial solution is acceptable we might consider outsourcing the forums to Disqus.
